In this cutting-edge technological milieu, fingerprints have become an alternative expression for the biometrics system.A fingerprint is one of the perceptible biometric modals which is predominantly utilized in almost all the security, and real-life applications.Fingerprints have many inherent rotational features that are mostly utilized for person recognition besides these features can also be utilized for the person gender classification.Thus, the proposed work is a novel algorithm which identifies the gender of an individual based on the fingerprint.The image fusion and feature level fusion technique are deliberated over the fingerprints with rotational invariant features.Experiments were carried on four state-of-the-art datasets and realized promising results by outperforming earlier outcomes.
