Because of incomplete fingerprint’s unique characteristic of information loss, the recognition performance is mainly restricted by two critical problems: extracting features containing sufficient information and measuring similarity more effectively. For the first problem, minutiae and orientation field features are fused to get more comprehensive information and to improve the scale and rotation invariability. For the second, the pattern entropy is introduced to measure the coherency of correspondences between two feature sets to eliminate false mat
