Fixed-Length Dense Fingerprint Representation with Alignment and Robust Enhancement
- 用三维密集描述子捕捉纹线空间关系,提升局部判别力。
- 在跨模态和低质量场景下,匹配准确率显著优于现有方法。
- 适合大规模指纹识别系统,对噪声和姿态变化有强适应性。
固定长度指纹表示将每枚指纹映射为紧凑且固定大小的特征向量,计算高效,适用于大规模匹配。然而,设计能有效处理多样指纹模态、姿态变化及噪声干扰的鲁棒表示仍具挑战。本文提出一种固定长度的密集指纹描述子,并构建FLARE框架,融合该描述子与基于姿态的对齐及鲁棒增强机制。该描述子采用三维密集结构,有效捕捉纹线间的空间关系,实现鲁棒且局部判别性强的表示。为保证密集特征空间的一致性,FLARE引入基于互补估计的姿态对齐方法,以及双重增强策略,在提升纹线清晰度的同时保留原始指纹模态。所提描述子支持固定长度表示并保持空间对应,实现快速精确的相似度计算。大量实验表明,FLARE在滚动、平面、潜显及非接触指纹上均表现优异,尤其在跨模态和低质量场景中显著超越现有方法。进一步分析验证了密集描述子设计的有效性,以及对齐与增强模块对匹配精度的贡献。结果证明FLARE是一种统一且可扩展的鲁棒指纹表示与匹配解决方案。代码将公开于 https://github.com/Yu-Yy/FLARE。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Fixed-length fingerprint representations, which map each fingerprint to a compact and fixed-size feature vector, are computationally efficient and well-suited for large-scale matching. However, designing a robust representation that effectively handles diverse fingerprint modalities, pose variations, and noise interference remains a significant challenge. In this work, we propose a fixed-length dense descriptor of fingerprints, and introduce FLARE-a fingerprint matching framework that integrates the Fixed-Length dense descriptor with pose-based Alignment and Robust Enhancement. This fixed-length representation employs a three-dimensional dense descriptor to effectively capture spatial relationships among fingerprint ridge structures, enabling robust and locally discriminative representations. To ensure consistency within this dense feature space, FLARE incorporates pose-based alignment using complementary estimation methods, along with dual enhancement strategies that refine ridge clarity while preserving the original fingerprint modality. The proposed dense descriptor supports fixed-length representation while maintaining spatial correspondence, enabling fast and accurate similarity computation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that FLARE achieves superior performance across rolled, plain, latent, and contactless fingerprints, significantly outperforming existing methods in cross-modality and low-quality scenarios. Further analysis validates the effectiveness of the dense descriptor design, as well as the impact of alignment and enhancement modules on the accuracy of dense descriptor matching. Experimental results highlight the effectiveness and generalizability of FLARE as a unified and scalable solution for robust fingerprint representation and matching. The implementation and code will be publicly available at https://github.com/Yu-Yy/FLARE.
