ABSTRACT
Biometrics is a physical, electronic and biological means of providing dependable and accurate
identification of people. It entails data acquisition, storage and subsequent matching at points of
access or identification. Biometrics is an emerging technology that identifies people by their
physical and/or behavioral characteristics and practically requires the person to be identified to
be physically present at the point of identification. In this thesis, efforts to improve biometrics
were made in developing an algorithm that will enhance fingerprint images for effective
matching and rapid identification. The algorithm was based on wavelet processing which
employed Daubechies’ wavelets for decomposition as well as reconstruction. Wavelet smoothing
and denoising were also included in the algorithm.
