    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and devices for fingerprint recognition. In an aspect, a method of a fingerprint sensing system of extracting at least one fingerprint descriptor from an image captured by a fingerprint sensor for enrolment in the fingerprint sensing system is provided. The method comprises capturing images of a finger contacting the fingerprint sensor, detecting at least one fingerprint feature in each captured image, extracting fingerprint data from an area surrounding a location of the detected feature in each captured image, and extracting a fingerprint descriptor by performing a transform of the fingerprint data extracted from the area surrounding the location of the detected feature in each captured image, wherein a size of the area is selected such that the area comprises sufficient information to allow a duplicated descriptor to be discarded for the captured images.
