Competition SPD2010 - Fingerprint Singular Points Detection

Included in ICIAR 2010 – "International Conference on Image Analysis and Recognition", SPD2010 is a worldwide pioneer competition where the aim is to detect singular points (cores and deltas) in fingerprints images. These singular points are the most important topological features of a fingerprint and are extremely important in biometric identification systems based on fingerprint analysis because they make it possible to define the typology of the fingerprint and, at the same time, they constitute the process basis for an automatic identification.
