Enhancing Palm Recognition Accuracy Through Image Processing Deep Learning Techniques
J. Sheela Mercy, S. Silvia Priscila · 2024
Palm recognition systems play an important role in biometric authentication; however, existing systems frequently have low accuracy and resiliency due to problems such as changing lighting conditions, occlusions, and hand orientations. The paper describes a novel way to improve palm recognition accuracy by combining modern image processing and deep learning approaches. Unlike traditional systems that utilize handcrafted features and shallow learning algorithms, the proposed system uses convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for feature extraction and classification, as well as advanced image preprocessing techniques. The technology preprocesses palm images to increase quality and consistency, thereby reducing the impact of environmental factors. Cross-validation trials yielded consistent results, with an average accuracy of 95%, precision of 92%, recall of 96%, and Fl-score of 94%. Furthermore, computational efficiency comparisons reveal that the proposed system beats existing ones in terms of training time, inference time, and model size, indicating that it is a promising option for accurate and efficient palm recognition in a variety of real-world applications.
