On relative distortion in fingerprint comparison

Highlights • We model the relative distortion between latent and exemplar fingerprints. • We describe visualization tools and metrics that characterize relative distortion. • Distortion metrics can be used to flag comparisons with invalid correspondences. • Ghost cursor and magnifier tools provide i...

Summary:Highlights • We model the relative distortion between latent and exemplar fingerprints. • We describe visualization tools and metrics that characterize relative distortion. • Distortion metrics can be used to flag comparisons with invalid correspondences. • Ghost cursor and magnifier tools provide integrity checks during comparison.
