EXPRESSNET: An Explainable Residual Slim Network for Fingerprint Presentation Attack Detection
share
Presentation attack is a challenging issue that persists in the security of automatic fingerprint recognition systems. This paper proposes a novel explainable residual slim network that detects the presentation attack by representing the visual features in the input fingerprint sample. The encoder-decoder of this network along with the channel attention block converts the input sample into its heatmap representation while the modified residual convolutional neural network classifier discriminates between live and spoof fingerprints. The entire architecture of the heatmap generator block and modified ResNet classifier works together in an end-to-end manner. The performance of the proposed model is validated on benchmark liveness detection competition databases i.e. Livdet 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, and 2019 and the classification accuracy of 96.86%, 99.84%, 96.45%, 96.07%, 96.27% are achieved on them, respectively. The performance of the proposed model is compared with the state-of-the-art techniques, and the proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art methods in benchmark protocols of presentation attack detection in terms of classification accuracy.
