Abstract

Palm veins images are taken by a near infrared camera and a common digital camera. It is possible to generate clear vein images using near-infrared rays, but this is not easy using a color image. A near infrared palm vein image for training data and a color image were arranged in a dataset pair; the datasets were learned using a deep learning method called pix2pix. Clear palm vein images close to the near infrared image were generated using our proposed method. Our experimental results showed that we can take a palm vein image using only a general digital camera without a near infrared camera. Realization of palm veins authentication on an inexpensive smartphone is expected.
