Abstract A new algorithm for fingerprint compression based on sparse representation is introduced. At first, dictionary
is constructed by sparse combination of set of fingerprint patches. Designing dictionaries can be done by either selecting
one from a prespecified set or adapting a dictionary to a set of training signals. In this paper, we use K-SVD algorithm to
construct dictionary. After computation of dictionary, the image gets quantized, filtered and encoded. The resultant image
obtained may be of three qualities: Good, Bad and Ugly (GBU problem). In this paper, we overcome the GBU problem by
prediction the quality of image.

1 INTRODUCTION
SPARSE REPRESENTATION
(1)
Only some of the co-efficient are considered in Fig.1.As a result,
the data vector can be represented using few points.
2 EXISTING TECHNIQUE
For general image compression, two most commonly used
transforms are i) Discrete Cosine Transform [5], ii) Discrete Wavelet
Transform [6]. DCT based algorithms are used in JPEG [7],
JPEG2000 [8] whereas DWT based algorithms are used in SPIHT
(Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees. Targeted at fingerprint images
commonly used are WSQ (Wavelet Scalar Quantization), CT
(Contourlet Transform) [1]. But these algorithms have a major
disadvantage i.e.) they lack the ability of learning. The proposed
method based on sparse representation has the ability to update itself.

In order to remove noise from the image, a low pass filter is used.
This filter in turn retains only the low frequency information by
reducing the high frequency information. The low pass filtered
image is shown in Fig.10.
