# User Manual for fingerprint image filtering and model generating application
|
||||
|
||||
## Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
This project has been developed as a part of bachelor's thesis at Brno University of Technology - Faculty of Information Technology.
|
||||
The topic of this thesis was Generating a 3D Fingerprint Model from input fingerprint image.
|
||||
|
||||
This application consists of two main parts.The first part of the application uses image filters to enhance fingerprint images.
|
||||
Application also implements a custom filter library, which consists of several filters imported from image processing modules.
|
||||
|
||||
The second part uses the processed image to make a 3D model of the fingerprint.
|
||||
The model can then be used to print an accurate representation of human fingerprint using a 3D printer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting started
|
||||
|
||||
The application has only been tested on Ubuntu gnu/linux machines.
|
||||
It should however be possible to use it in on most linux distributions, WSLs and also virtual machines of most linux distributions.
|
||||
|
||||
To start off, you need these to succesfully use the application.
|
||||
|
||||
* **python** version 3.10 is a requirement might work on earlier python 3 versions:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo apt install python3.10
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* **virtualenv** package for virtual enviroment creation, other packages are installed automatically later:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
pip install virtualenv
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
This will install the application and its components into the Documents directory.
|
||||
It will also install several required python packages, including venv, which is used to create a virtual enviroment.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Go to a suitable installation folder, for example **Documents**:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd /home/username/Documents
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Clone the repository to a suitable directory, for example:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
git clone ssh://git@strade.fit.vutbr.cz:3022/xlanro00/BP_DP-xlanro00.git
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Go inside cloned directory:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd BP_DP-xlanro00
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
4. Create and enter the virtual enviroment:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
virtualenv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
5. Install required python modules from **requirements.txt**:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
6. Now, you are all set to run the application.
|
||||
Examples of how to do this are listedin the section bellow.
|
||||
|
||||
# Filtering images
|
||||
|
||||
Once all the requirements are installed, the application is ready to use.
|
||||
Fingerprint sample is located in res/examples, its name is Palec_P4.tif.
|
||||
|
||||
* You will need to enter the virtual enviroment every time you want to use the application.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
source .venv/bin/activate
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* The application requires **input** and **output filenames** including path from the root project directory, **dpi** and **filter list** as shown bellow.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 src/main.py input_file output_file dpi filters
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to enter the filters:
|
||||
|
||||
1. manually list all filter names and their parameters on the **command line**:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 src/main.py res/examples/Palec_P4.tif res/examples/Palec_P4_from_cline.png 600 total_variation weight=0.15 median ksize=5
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. load them from preset in a JSON **configuration file**, that can be used to tune and modify existing presets, or create new ones:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 src/main.py res/examples/Palec_P4.tif res/examples/Palec_P4_from_preset.png 600 --config conf/conf.json git_example
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration and presets
|
||||
#
|
||||
|
||||
There is an option to input the filter series as a preset from JSON configuration file.
|
||||
Here the presets are stored and are ready to be used whenever needed. You can usehow many filters you need as long as you like the output.
|
||||
It is therefore highly recommended to check the output after every preset change.
|
||||
|
||||
Filter used in the example above is listed bellow, along with the general form of configuration file.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
To avoid accidental loss of information caused by modifying presets that have been used to generate stl files,
|
||||
these presets are stored inside a JSON file db.json.
|
||||
|
||||
This file serves as a simple database for storing presets, stored presets are modified by adding generated hash of all the filters in that preset.
|
||||
There is also an option to save current command line setting as a preset using -d switch and it's new name:

# Generating fingerprint model
|
||||
|
||||
## Generating curved finger model
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to generate stl model using the `--stl` switch. This requires more parameters, first of which is the type of generated fingerprint.
|
||||
|
||||
If the mode is set to `c`, the output model will be a curved finger model, with optional parameters following the filename controlling its shape.
|
||||
|
||||
First optional parameter is papilar line height `height_line`, second is thickness of the model `height_base`,
|
||||
third the rate of curvature along x axis `curv_rate_x` and the third is the rate of curvature along y axis `curv_rate_y`.
|
||||
|
||||
* General form for curved stl generation:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 src/main.py input_file output_file dpi --config config_file preset --stl c height_line height_base curvature_x curvature_y
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* Working example curved stl generation:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 src/main.py res/examples/Palec_P4.tif res/examples/Palec_P4_from_preset.png 600 --config config/config.json git_example --stl c 2 10 2 2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Generating planar finger model
|
||||
|
||||
Using `p` mode makes the generated fingerprint model flat.
|
||||
Optional parameters are height of the papilar lines and base thickness.
|
||||
|
||||
* General command form for planar stl generation:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 src/main.py input_file output_file dpi --config config_file preset --stl p height_line height_base
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
* Working example of planar stl generation:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 src/main.py res/examples/Palec_P4.tif res/examples/Palec_P4_from_preset.png 600 --config config/config.json git_example --stl p 2 10
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Mapping to existing finger model
|
||||
|
||||
This section will be added later, (if implemented) mapping of fingerprint to a given finger model.
|
||||
|
||||
* General command form for mapped stl generation:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
python3 src/main.py input_file output_file dpi --config config_file preset --stl m height_line height_base finger_file
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
