ABSTRACT: This document presents a framework for recognizing people by palm vein distribution analysis using cross-correlation based signatures to obtain descriptors. Haar wavelets are useful in reducing the number of features while maintaining high recognition rates. This experiment achieved 97.5% of individuals classified correctly with two levels of Haar wavelets. This study used twelve-version of RGB and NIR (near infrared) wavelength images per individual. One hundred people were studied; therefore 4,800 instances compose the complete database. A Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) was trained to improve the recognition rate in a k-fold cross-validation test with k = 10. Classification results using MLP neural network were obtained using Weka (open source machine learning software).
