The invention relates to a finger 
vein living body detection method based on multi-
feature fusion and DE-ELM, and the method comprises the following steps: 1) respectively collecting a true finger 
vein image and a false finger pseudo 
vein image as positive and negative training samples, and carrying out the size normalization preprocessing and 
Gaussian filtering 
processing of the positive and negative training samples; 2) respectively extracting a plurality of LBP 
histogram features and multi-scale HOG features of the vein image, and fusing the LBP 
histogram features and the multi-scale HOG features into a total 
feature vector for expressing vein features; 3) setting an 
activation function of neurons of the 
hidden layer, determining the number of the neurons of the 
hidden layer by using adifferential evolution 
algorithm (DE), and constructing a DE-ELM classification model; 4) inputting the training data into a DE-ELM classification model for training; and 5) inputting the test image data into the trained DE-ELM classification model for detection and identification of 
living body data, and determining whether the test image data is a 
living body finger vein. According to the invention, the 
algorithm for finger vein living body detection by combining multi-
feature fusion with the DE-ELM classifier has the advantages of fast detection speed, high detection precision, strong robustness and the like.
