In fact, bozorth3 is one of the biggest sticking points for the fprint project at this time. We'd all be very happy if you could improve on this. The problems are that it works very well for fingerprints of young people, but not so well for the older generations where the skin is looser. The other big problem is that it doesn't work well for images with very few minutae (less than 10), and some of the sensors that are common in the marketplace only produce small images like this. Good luck! Daniel _______________________________________________ fprint mailing list [email protected] http://lists.reactivated.net/mailman/listinfo/fprint
