Weighted Guided Image Filtering

Weighted Guided Image Filtering Abstract: It is known that local filtering-based edge preserving smoothing techniques suffer from halo artifacts. In this paper, a weighted guided image filter (WGIF) is introduced by incorporating an edge-aware weighting into an existing guided image filter (GIF) to address the problem. The WGIF inherits advantages of both global and local […]


Learning Fingerprint Reconstruction From Minutiae to Image

Learning Fingerprint Reconstruction: From Minutiae to Image Abstract The set of minutia points is considered to be the most distinctive feature for fingerprint representation and is widely used in fingerprint matching. It was believed that the minutiae set does not contain sufficient information to reconstruct the original fingerprint image from which minutiae were extracted. However, […]
