Researchers at New York University Tandon School of Engineering - Philip Bontrager, Aditi Roy, Julian Togelius and Nasir Memon - and researcher at Michigan State University, Arun Ross, have developed a method of constructing fingerprints, known as Deep Master Prints. The researchers … created false partial fingerprints in an attempt to trick biometric sensors, but took these results a step further using machine learning and AI to create full-scale images of false fingerprints.
