Title: Implementation of a New Born Child Authentication System Using Image Processing
Abstract:The Missing, swapping, mixing, and illegal adoption of new born child is a global challenge and research done to solve this issue is minimal and least reported in the literature. As per our knowledge,...The Missing, swapping, mixing, and illegal adoption of new born child is a global challenge and research done to solve this issue is minimal and least reported in the literature. As per our knowledge, there is no biometric system currently available that can be effectively used for new born child identification. The manual procedure of capturing inked footprints in practice for this purpose is limited for use inside hospitals and is not an effective solution for identification purposes. Hence, a new born child personal authentication system is proposed for this issue based on multi biometrics. The biometric traits considered are the footprint of the new born child and the fingerprint of the mother. An appropriate fusion scheme is implemented to overcome the drawbacks of a single modality. The experimental results are promising and prove to be an effective system.Read More
