#he ra$id %ro&th in the use of e'commerce a$$lications re(uires reliable and
automatic $ersonal identification for effective securit) control. #raditional* automatic*
$ersonal identification can be divided into t&o cate%ories+ token based* such as a
$h)sical ke)* an I, card* and a $ass$ort* and kno&led%e'based* such as a $ass&ord.
-o&ever* these a$$roaches have some limitations. In the token'based a$$roach* the
.token/ can be easil) stolen or lost. In the kno&led%e'based a$$roach* to some e0tent*
the .kno&led%e/ can be %uessed or for%otten. #hus* biometric $ersonal identification

#he second ste$ is related to feature e0traction. We &ill tr) to e0tract features from
our hands that enable us to use them in reco%nition and detect the correct hand. We
should e0tract the lar%e number of features as $ossible as &e can. We should

behind such $rojects. We detail the statement of $roblem of that $roject and our
method to solve the $roblem of it. We introduce the ste$s in soft&are that &e should
