hello i am a student doing a project of fingerprint recognition.now i have extract ridge end and bifurcation from fingerprints image..now i want code for "ridge end and bifurcation point count from extraction..could anyone help me ?

function Process_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to Process (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
if isfield(handles, 'f')
      % convert to binary
   binary_image = im2bw( imread(handles.f) );
%Thinning
thin_image=~bwmorph(binary_image,'thin',Inf);
ax = handles.axes1;
imshow(thin_image, 'Parent', ax);
title(ax, 'Thinned Image');

%Minutiae extraction
s=size(thin_image);
N=3;%window size
n=(N-1)/2;
r=s(1)+2*n;
c=s(2)+2*n;
double temp(r,c);   
temp=zeros(r,c);bifurcation=zeros(r,c);ridge=zeros(r,c);
temp((n+1):(end-n),(n+1):(end-n))=thin_image(:,:);
outImg=zeros(r,c,3);%For Display
outImg(:,:,1) = temp .* 255;
outImg(:,:,2) = temp .* 255;
outImg(:,:,3) = temp .* 255;
for x=(n+1+10):(s(1)+n-10)
    for y=(n+1+10):(s(2)+n-10)
        e=1;
        for k=x-n:x+n
            f=1;
            for l=y-n:y+n
                mat(e,f)=temp(k,l);
                f=f+1;
            end
            e=e+1;
        end;
         if(mat(2,2)==0)
            ridge(x,y)=sum(sum(~mat));
            bifurcation(x,y)=sum(sum(~mat));
         end
    end;
end;
