Optimum block size detection for image quality measure

Abstract

This paper deals with the quality of the image itself as well as the algorithm used for evaluating the quality of the fingerprints to construct an effective algorithm for evaluating the quality of the fingerprints. The quality of the fingerprint is acquired by taking the regional quality of each fingerprint image. The amount of fingerprint varies according to the size of each block which makes the result unsteady. We concentrated on finding the right size for the block used to acquire the fingerprint image. Also, the quality distribution included in the fingerprint image was acquired when the optimal block size was adopted.
