Comparative and Identify the Kunckle Prints in Right and Left Hand of Male and Female, On the Basis of Bifurcation and Ridge Ending

Knuckle prints are unique patterns, it contains ridges and furrows on the dorsal surface of the hand. Knuckle prints are used biometric identifier. These prints contain biological features like minutiae.The objective of this research is to investigate, the comparative analysis of knuckle prints in both hands of male and female individual. The study emphasizes the variations in ridge endings and bifurcations between right and left hand. Data collection involves gathering knuckle patterns from individuals aged 20 and above, with a target of 100 samples from each gender. The analysis focuses on the knuckle prints of the right and left hand of both genders, comparing the counts of ridge ending and bifurcation. The study aims to determine which hand exhibits a greater number of bifurcations and ridge endings, thereby facilitating personal and gender identification through knuckle prints. Samples are obtained via photography using a mobile camera, ensuring that the lens is used without flash during daylight against a black background. The captured knuckle print images are then converted to black and white to enhance their sharpness and clarity, utilizing the B and W 07 profiles in the Adobe Lightroom application. In here I count bifurcation and ridge ending in each figure and total count of right and left hand separately. The comparisons were made between the right and left hands, as well as between male and female subjects. The results indicate notable differences in the distribution of these minutiae between genders and hands.
