PDFAbstract: This paper proposes a method of personal identification based on tongue image. Tongue image have many advantage for personal identification and verification. In this paper a texture tongue features are extracted based on steerable filters and WLD (Weber Law Descriptors) transform. These features can be used in forensic applications and with other robust biometrics features can combined multi modal biometric system.
