Fingerprint identification requires that the fingerprint match a pre-recorded fingerprint template stored in the on-board fingerprint database.
Constructing a fingerprint database is important to evaluate the performance of automatic fingerprint recognition systems.
Because of the difficulty in collecting fingerprint samples, there are only few benchmark databases available.
Moreover, various types of fingerprints are required to measure how robust the system is in various environments.
