ABSTRACT
In recent years, fusion of multiple biometric modalities for personal authentication has received considerable attention. This paper presents a feature level fusion algorithm based on texture features. The system combines fingerprint, face and off-line signature. Texture features are extracted from Curvelet transform. The Curvelet feature dimension is selected based on d-prime number. The increase in feature dimension is reduced by using template averaging, moment features and by Principal component analysis (PCA). The algorithm is tested on in-house multimodal database comprising of 3000 samples and Chimeric databases. Identification performance of the system is evaluated using SVM classifier. A maximum GAR of 97.15% is achieved with Curvelet-PCA features.
