Sharat Suresh Chikkerur has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Fingerprint representation using localized texture feature
    Patent number: 8180121
    Abstract: A system and method for processing fingerprints includes representing each minutiae in a fingerprint by determining quantized Gabor coefficients to represent texture content of the minutiae. A distance is computed between represented minutiae and stored minutiae. The minutiae matches are ranked based on the distance to identify the fingerprint.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 4, 2008
    Date of Patent: May 15, 2012
    Assignee: International Business Machines Corporation
    Inventors: Rudolf Maarten Bolle, Sharat Suresh Chikkerur, Sharathchandra UmapathiRao Pankanti, Nalini Kanta Ratha
