AGVBench: A Reliability-Oriented Benchmark of Data Augmentation for Vein Recognition

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

Vein recognition is a secure biometric technology often constrained by limited annotated data and imaging variations. While data augmentation mitigates this, strategies designed for natural images may disrupt the fine-grained topology and textures essential for identity discrimination.

FVeinSyn: Synthetic Finger Vein Image Generator

FVeinSyn is a large‑scale synthetic finger‑vein image generator that separates vascular topology synthesis from imaging appearance rendering. It uses stochastic L‑systems to create anatomically valid, identity‑distinctive vein patterns, a cascaded region‑aware GAN to produce realistic near‑infrared images, and an intra‑class diversity generator to simulate realistic variations. The framework generated 500,000 images across 10,000 identities, and models trained with this data outperformed real‑data‑only baselines on eight public datasets, improving average accuracy by 27.43%.

OpenVeinNet: Robust Open-Set Finger Vein Verification with Dynamic Snake Convolution and Graph Learning

OpenVeinNet is a finger vein verification framework that tackles open-set scenarios by combining Dynamic Snake Convolution, which extracts local curvilinear vein structures through adaptive sampling, with a graph convolutional backbone that models long-range topological relationships between vein regions. The model introduces a Centroid Angular Hybrid Loss to promote intra-class compactness and inter-class angular separation in the embedding space. Experiments on five public datasets under leave-one-dataset-out training demonstrate strong cross-dataset generalisation, low equal error rates, and competitive true accept rates at fixed false accept rates.
