It used morphological operations (e.g., thinning) in order to create the line edge map and implement the Hausdorff distance for classification. Research was performed on the own database.
It implemented various features extractors (e.g., CompCode, OLOF, and RLOC) and various matching methods (e.g., SVM and kNN). Research was performed on 5 different mobile devices.
Characteristic vectors have to be extracted from the gray scale image using filtering or transformation techniques such as oriented field flow curves (OFFC), Gabor filter, discrete wavelet transform (DWT), fast Fourier transform (FFT), discrete cosine transform (DCT), and principal component analysis (PCA).
