Abstract
In this paper, an algorithm is proposed to enhance fingerprint image which includes in one of its steps a smoothing process in which the suggested genetic algorithms by Mitras and Anwar in 2007 which used image smooth filters in both spatial and frequency domain will be employed to know their efficiency in enhancing and regaining the damaged sides of the fingerprint image to remove two types of noise, first one deals with noise added to the image, and the second one the noise already found in the image. Then histogram technique is used to enhance the fingerprint image.
