New network improves fingerprint spoof detection using artifact difficulty analysis

Researchers have developed a new method for detecting fake fingerprints by analyzing regions with varying levels of artifact extraction difficulty (AED). Their proposed Cascade Forgery Mining Network (CFM-Net) uses local Gabor feature certainty to partition fingerprint images and adaptively extracts features from these regions. An Orientation Guided Adversarial Training (OGAT) module is also introduced to preserve artifact evidence while filtering out identity information. Experiments on LivDet datasets show CFM-Net outperforms existing methods, particularly on fingerprints with high AED. AI

IMPACT This research could enhance the security of biometric systems by improving the accuracy of detecting sophisticated fingerprint spoofing attempts.

    Cascade Forgery Mining Network for Fingerprint Presentation Attack Detection

    arXiv:2607.24090v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Fingerprint Presentation Attack Detection (PAD) is a critical component of fingerprint identification systems, serving as a protective measure against unauthorized access. In this paper, we observe that different regions of a finger…
