• Abstract: This document presents a preliminary approach to latent fingerprint enhancement, fundamentally designed around a mixed Unet architecture. It combines the capabilities of the Resnet-101 network and Unet encoder, aiming to form a potentially powerful composite. This combination, enhanced with attention mechanisms and forward skip connections, is intended to optimize the enhancement of ridge and minutiae features in fingerprints. One innovative element of this approach includes a novel Fingerprint Enhancement Gabor layer, specifically designed for GPU computations. This illustrates how modern computational resources might be harnessed to expedite enhancement. Given its potential functionality as either a CNN or Transformer layer, this Gabor layer could offer improved agility and processing speed to the system. However, it is important to note that this approach is still in the early stages of development and has not yet been fully validated through rigorous experiments. As such, it may require additional time and testing to establish its robustness and usability in the field of latent fingerprint enhancement. This includes improvements in processing speed, enhancement adaptability with distinct latent fingerprint types, and full validation in experimental approaches such as open-set (identification 1:N) and open-set validation, fingerprint quality evaluation, among others.

We propose a realignment strategy using local embeddings extracted from intermediate feature maps within the networks to refine the global embeddings in low certainty situations. This strategy can be applied as a wrapper to any existing deep learning network (including attention-based, CNN-based, or both) to boost its performance.
