This chapter addresses two topical issues in the field of fingerprint-based biometric systems: i) fingerprint templates reverse-engineering, that is, the synthesis of finger-print images starting from minutiae-based templates and ii) fake fingerprint detec-tion, that is discriminating between real and fake fingerprint impressions, the latter generated by artificial reproductions of a finger. After a brief review of the current state of the art, two innovative techniques are discussed in detail: a reconstruction approach able to synthesize a valid fingerprint image from an ISO 19794-2 template and a fake fingerprint detection method based on the analysis of the finger odor.

After a brief review of the current state of the art, two innovative techniques are discussed in detail: a reconstruction approach able to synthesize a valid fingerprint image from an ISO 19794-2 template and a fake fingerprint detection method based on the analysis of the finger odor.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
