A novel approach to optimize crime investigation process using palmprint recognition

摘要

A crime investigation is generally carried out to aid the crime solving process by identifying criminals and in some cases victims. Print evidence plays a crucial part in identifying criminals or suspects. According to Sri Lankan Criminal Records, 30%–35% of the print evidences are in the form of partial palmprints. Partial-to-full palmprint matching has attracted the experts in print identification area and researchers in palmprint matching. An efficient partial palmprint identification approach can increase the efficiency of the criminal investigation process in Sri Lanka as well as in other countries.
