A review on Finger vein based Recognition

One of the most well-researched methods in biometric is finger vein-based identification for authenticating an individual. As this biometrics involves inbuilt security, such as the liveliness of the individual concerned, it cannot be replicated or altered. Further, it can be combined easily with fingerprint, palm print, palm & dorsal hand vein, and other biometrics to improve recognition accuracy as some extremely secure applications require. This paper focuses on the research works and their analysis in recognizing individuals using palm and finger veins.
