#REDIRECT [[Fingerprint#Fingerprint verification]] {{redirect from merge}} |
|||
'''Minutiae''', in fingerprinting terms, are the points of interest in a fingerprint, such as bifurcations (a ridge splitting into two) and ridge endings. |
|||
[[Fingerprint]] contains special features ([[minutiae]]) |
|||
* ridge endings - a ridge that ends abruptly |
|||
* ridge bifurcation - a single ridge that divides into two ridges |
|||
* short ridges, island or independent ridge - a ridge that commences, travels a short distance and then ends |
|||
* ridge enclosures - a single ridge that bifurcates and reunites shortly afterward to continue as a single ridge |
|||
* spur - a bifurcation with a short ridge branching off a longer ridge |
|||
* crossover or bridge - a short ridge that runs between two parallel ridges |
|||
Minutiae also refers to any small or otherwise incidental detail. |

Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated) or delete this page.
- For redirects with substantive page histories that did not result from page merges use {{R with history}} instead.
