N2 - Existing methods for iris, fingerprint, and 3D face recognition in mobile devices have constraints in terms of price and size owing to their use of additional cameras, lighting, and sensors. Additionally, visible light, camera-based 2D face recognition, palm print recognition, touchless fingerprint recognition, and finger knuckle print recognition are difficult to be used in mobile devices due to limitations in recognition performance and user inconvenience. In response to these problems, studies have been conducted on finger wrinkle recognition in mobile devices; however, image quality is often reduced by motion blurring caused by the movement of the camera or the user's finger, thereby reducing recognition performance. This study proposes a method for restoring and recognizing motion-blurred finger wrinkle images based on a generative adversarial network and deep convolutional neural network. Experiments were performed using two types of finger wrinkle databases, which were custom-made from images of 33 people captured by smart phone cameras (Dongguk mobile finger wrinkle database versions 1 and 2, denoted as DMFW-DB1 and DMFW-DB2, respectively). The results demonstrated high restoration and recognition performance in comparison with the state-of-the-art methods.
