This project aims to adopt preprocessing operations to get less distortions for shadow image enlargement. The preprocessing operations consists of three main steps: first enlarge the original shadow image by using any kind of interpolation methods, second apply average filter to the enlargement image and finally apply the unsharp filter to the previous averaged image. These preprocessing operations leads to get an enlargement image very close to the original enlarge image for the same shadow image. Then comparisons established between the adopted image and original image by using different types of interpolation and different alfa values for unsharp filter to reach the best way which have less different errors between the two images.

This paper describes the design and development of a prototype technique for artificial intelligence based on the fusion of genetic algorithm, neural network and fuzzy logic. It starts by establishing a relationship between the neural network and fuzzy logic. Then, it combines the genetic algorithm with them. Information fusions are at the confidence level, where matching scores can be reported and discussed. The technique is called the Genetic Neuro-Fuzzy (GNF). It can be used for high accuracy real-time environments.

\begin{abstract} In recent years, the Finger Texture (FT) has attracted considerable attention as a biometric characteristic. It can provide efficient human recognition performance, because it has different human-specific features of apparent lines, wrinkles and ridges distributed along the inner surface of all fingers. Also, such pattern structures are reliable, unique and remain stable throughout a human's life. Efficient biometric systems can be established based only on FTs. In this paper, a comprehensive survey of the relevant FT studies is presented. We also summarise the main drawbacks and obstacles of employing the FT as a biometric characteristic, and provide useful suggestions to further improve the work on FT. \end{abstract}
