Abstract

In this paper, recognition of the hand vein patterns approach is proposed employing the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). This approach is routinely well-learned in what way to get features from the main pattern using Region of Interest (ROI). Though, the poor quality of the hand vein image still attitudes an unlimited strain to the extension leads of its usability. Firstly, by applying the method of Generative adversarial networks (GAN) data augmentation the performance gain of adding GAN generated data exceeds that of adding more true images, and apply ROI in a hand vein image feature extraction is studied initially. Secondly, the suggested approach is tested on the data sets of hand veins to decrease the overfitting in the fully connecting layer of CNN which this model proves the most effective one. In total, 1575 hand vein images from 100 subjects are applied to authorize the proposed approach for hand vein. A high accuracy (>99.8%) and low False Rejection Rate(FRR) (<0.99%) were achieved by applying the suggested approach, when compared with the existing CNN classifiers, indicating the efficiency of the suggested approach.
