Uncovering vein patterns from color skin images for personal identification in forensic investigation by Tang, Chaoying

“…Using these images as evidence in legal cases (e.g. child sexual abuse, child pornography and masked gunmen) can be very challenging, because the faces of criminals or victims are not visible. Although large skin marks and tattoos have been used, they are ineffective in some legal cases, because the skin exposed in evidence images have neither unique tattoos nor enough skin marks for identification. …”
