The Research on Fingerprint Encryption Algorithm Based on The Error Correcting Code

In this paper, an overall introduction of fingerprint encryption algorithm is made, and then a fingerprint encryption algorithm with error correction is designed by adding error correction mechanism. This new fingerprint encryption algorithm can produce stochastic key in the form of multinomial coefficient by using the binary system sequencer, encrypt fingerprint, and use the Lagrange difference value to restore the multinomial during authenticating. Due to using the cyclic redundancy check code to find out the most accurate key, the accuracy of this algorithm can be ensured. Experimental result indicates that the fuzzy vault algorithm with error correction can well realize the template protection, and meet the requirements of biological information security protection. In addition, it also indicates that the system's safety performance can be enhanced by chanaing the key's length.
