Abstract
Method of comparing a test fingerprint with a stored reference fingerprint. The stored reference fingerprint and an image strip sequence of the test fingerprint are produced, wherein image strips of the image strip sequence represent different areas of the test fingerprint. Individual distance values between each image strip of the test fingerprint and at least one section of the reference fingerprint using a distance function are determined. An overall distance value from the individual distance values are determined, the overall distance value being a measure of similarity between the test fingerprint and the reference fingerprint.
