The code below helps to fetch minutiae points from a given fingerprint image
% This program extracts the ridges and bifurcation from a fingerprint image
% Read Input Image
binary_image=im2bw(imread('image.tif'));
% Small region is taken to show output clear
binary_image = binary_image(120:400,20:250);
figure;imshow(binary_image);title('Input image');
% Thinning
thin_image=~bwmorph(binary_image,'thin',Inf);
figure;imshow(thin_image);title('Thinned Image');
% Minutiae extraction
s=size(thin_image);
N=3;%window size
n=(N-1)/2;
r=s(1)+2*n;
c=s(2)+2*n;
double temp(r,c);
temp=zeros(r,c);bifurcation=zeros(r,c);ridge=zeros(r,c);
temp((n+1):(end-n),(n+1):(end-n))=thin_image(:,:);
outImg=zeros(r,c,3);%For Display
outImg(:,:,1) = temp .* 255;
outImg(:,:,2) = temp .* 255;
outImg(:,:,3) = temp .* 255;
for x=(n+1+10):(s(1)+n-10)
for y=(n+1+10):(s(2)+n-10)
e=1;
for k=x-n:x+n
f=1;
for l=y-n:y+n
mat(e,f)=temp(k,l);
f=f+1;
end
e=e+1;
end;
if(mat(2,2)==0)
ridge(x,y)=sum(sum(~mat));
bifurcation(x,y)=sum(sum(~mat));
end
end;
end;
% RIDGE END FINDING
[ridge_x ridge_y]=find(ridge==2);
len=length(ridge_x);
%For Display
for i=1:len
outImg((ridge_x(i)-3):(ridge_x(i)+3),(ridge_y(i)-3),2:3)=0;
outImg((ridge_x(i)-3):(ridge_x(i)+3),(ridge_y(i)+3),2:3)=0;
outImg((ridge_x(i)-3),(ridge_y(i)-3):(ridge_y(i)+3),2:3)=0;
outImg((ridge_x(i)+3),(ridge_y(i)-3):(ridge_y(i)+3),2:3)=0;
outImg((ridge_x(i)-3):(ridge_x(i)+3),(ridge_y(i)-3),1)=255;
outImg((ridge_x(i)-3):(ridge_x(i)+3),(ridge_y(i)+3),1)=255;
