Abstract
For more than a century, latent fingerprints have been effectively utilized to identify criminal defendants by matching the latent fingerprints to the rolled or plain fingerprints saved in the dataset. Background noise, overlapping patterns, unclear structures, partial impressions, and non-linear distortions of the finger are the key issues with latent fingerprints. Segmentation is one of the procedures that must be completed before identification. Traditional segmentation methods perform badly on latent fingerprints. The focus of this research has primarily been on the automatic segmentation of latent fingerprints. First, the latent fingerprint images are divided into local blocks. Then, feature vectors are constructed by extracting the features from the local blocks using the ridge, intensity, and gradient method. Extracted feature vectors are fed as input of bidirectional long short-term memory network (BiLSTM). The BiLSTM is utilized for segmentation with world cup optimization for weight update. The proposed algorithm`s performance is compared with the previously known results of the latent fingerprint segmentation techniques. The segmentation accuracy of latent fingerprints is 92.9% which has greatly been improved, and it is quite promising than the earlier algorithms.

Keywords
