Minutia clouds
Removed minutia clouds, a part of algorithm transparency, is a filter applied to skeleton minutiae after inner minutiae filter and before top minutiae filter. Minutia clouds are tightly packed constellations of minutiae. Minutia clouds are usually a result of errors in prior stages of the algorithm.

Visualization
Visualization of minutiae after minutia cloud removal was constructed by comparing this stage's CBOR data with inner minutiae. Original fingerprint is in the background. Visualization itself is not part of transparency data.
Format
Format of the intermediate template after removal of minutia clouds is identical to skeleton minutiae.
