JPEG 2000 CODEC Certification Guidance for 1000 ppi Fingerprint Friction Ridge Imagery

May 5, 2021
Author(s)
Shahram Orandi, John M. Libert, John Grantham, Michael Garris, Frederick R. Byers
The document describes the procedure by which applications of JPEG 2000 CODECs will be evaluated with respect to conformance to the NIST guidance for compression of 1000 ppi friction ridge images as detailed in NIST Special Publication 500-289 [NIST3]. The

Guidance for Evaluating Contactless Fingerprint Acquisition Devices

July 27, 2018
Author(s)
John M. Libert, John D. Grantham, Bruce Bandini, Stephen S. Wood, Michael D. Garris, Kenneth Ko, Frederick R. Byers, Craig I. Watson
This document details efforts undertaken by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop measurements and a protocol for the evaluation of contactless (touchless) fingerprint acquisition devices. Contactless fingerprint capture

A Spectral Analytic Method for Fingerprint Image Sample Rate Estimation

February 25, 2014
Author(s)
John M. Libert, Shahram Orandi, John D. Grantham, Michael D. Garris
This study examines the use of the NIST Spectral Image Validation and Verification (SIVV) metric for the application of detecting the sample rate of a given fingerprint digital image. SIVV operates by reducing an input image to a 1-dimensional power
