1.2 Context

[okashaluai]

Describe in detail the context in which your system operates. If needed, include a block diagram showing the major components of the larger system, how they inter-connect, and what external interfaces are maintained. Do not dive into design details. Your system should usually be a single block in the diagram.

• System operations:

  1. Fingerprint Generation - Machine Learning Model:
  2. 3D Builder:
  3. NBIS:
  4. (Maybe matching/scoring ...)

• Add block diagram showing major components.

Our system would be used as a research proof tool to prove an attack on fingerprint biometric systems based on that the research is providing an approach for enhancing the security of biometric systems. It will be used to analyze, improve and build up a high quality attack vector alongside statistics and details about the experiment.

The system is maintaining the following external interfaces:

1. Fingerprint Generation - Machine Learning Model: we will integrate a machine learning model that is taking a fingerprint template as an input and generate a 2d fingerprint image as an output.
2. NBIS: NBIS is a system developed by the FBI for biometric identification, while NIST is a government agency that plays a role in setting standards and conducting research, including in the field of biometrics. we will maintain it in our system in order to have the advantage of its privilege regarding fingerprints images enhancement and features extraction.
3. 3D Builder: the 3d builder is a component that is used to build up a 3d printing objects given 2d fingerprint images, we will use deep learning/image processing external libraries to implement it.
