Over the past two decades, researchers in the field of biometrics have presented a wide variety of coding-based palmprint recognition methods. These approaches mainly rely on extracting the texture features, e.g. line orientations, and phase information, using different filters. In this paper, we propose a new efficient palmprint recognition method based on the Different of Block Means. In the proposed scheme, only basic operations (i.e. mainly additions and subtractions) are used, thus involving a much lower computational cost when compared with existing systems. This makes the system suitable for online palmprint identification and verification. Furthermore, the technique has been shown to deliver superior performance over related systems.
