In this context, palm vein patterns have received the attention of researchers due to their uniqueness, non-intrusion, and reliability. Currently, research on palm vein recognition based on deep learning is still very preliminary, most of the works are based on very deep models by using pre-trained models and transfer learning techniques. In this work, we evaluate end-to-end CNN models for palm vein recognition. The proposed method was implemented on seven public databases of palm vein images and two convolutional neural network architectures were evaluated: SingleNet, the proposed architecture of few convolutional layers, and a deeper architecture based on ResNet32. The experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the SingleNet model, outperforming the state-of-the-art results for the IITI, PUT, and FYO databases, achieving the same results on the Tongji and PolyU datasets, and obtaining a slightly lower performance for the VERA and CASIA databases. Comparing to the state-of-theart approaches, our proposed method is computationally simpler than those that are based on very deep architectures and others that fuse hand-crafted and CNN extracted features.
