Abstract: A new method to generate gummy fingers is presented. A medium-size fake fingerprint database is described and two different fingerprint verification systems are evaluated on it. Three different scenarios are considered in the experiments, namely: enrollment and test with real fingerprints, enrollment and test with fake fingerprints, and enrollment with real fingerprints and test with fake fingerprints. Results for an optical and a thermal sweeping sensors are given. Both systems are shown to be vulnerable to direct attacks.

Deep Learning-Based Approaches for Contactless Fingerprints Segmentation and Extraction [1.2441902898414798]
We develop a deep learning-based segmentation tool for contactless fingerprint localization and segmentation. In our evaluation, our segmentation method demonstrated an average mean absolute error (MAE) of 30 pixels, an error in angle prediction (EAP) of 5.92 degrees, and a labeling accuracy of 97.46%.

Hierarchical Perceptual Noise Injection for Social Media Fingerprint Privacy Protection [106.5308793283895]
fingerprint leakage from social media raises a strong desire for anonymizing shared images. To guard the fingerprint leakage, adversarial attack emerges as a solution by adding imperceptible perturbations on images. We propose FingerSafe, a hierarchical perceptual protective noise injection framework to address the mentioned problems.

Responsible Disclosure of Generative Models Using Scalable Fingerprinting [70.81987741132451]
Deep generative models have achieved a qualitatively new level of performance. There are concerns on how this technology can be misused to spoof sensors, generate deep fakes, and enable misinformation at scale. Our work enables a responsible disclosure of such state-of-the-art generative models, that allows researchers and companies to fingerprint their models.

Latent Fingerprint Registration via Matching Densely Sampled Points [100.53031290339483]
Existing latent fingerprint registration approaches are mainly based on establishing correspondences between minutiae. We propose a non-minutia latent fingerprint registration method which estimates the spatial transformation between a pair of fingerprints. The proposed method achieves the state-of-the-art registration performance, especially under challenging conditions.

An Overview of Fingerprint-Based Authentication: Liveness Detection and Beyond [0.0]
We focus on methods to detect physical liveness, defined as techniques that can be used to ensure that a living human user is attempting to authenticate on a system. We analyze how effective these methods are at preventing attacks where a malicious entity tries to trick a fingerprint-based authentication system to accept a fake finger as a real one.
