Robust Iris Recognition Baseline for the Grand Challenge
نویسندگان
چکیده
Due to its distinctiveness, the human iris is a popular biometric feature used to identity a person with high accuracy. The “Grand Challenge” in iris recognition is to have an effective algorithm for subject verification or identification under a broad range of image and environmental conditions. This paper presents both baseline performance results and an enhanced version of VASIR (Video-based Automated System for Iris Recognition) as a response the challenge. We describe the details of the VASIR procedure and demonstrate its superiority over the IrisBEE algorithm. Finally, the image quality scores and how they relate to VASIR’s performance are examined. Keywords-biometrics, iris recognition, VASIR, baseline, benchmark, Hamming distance, image processing

Quality-driven and real-time iris recognition from close-up eye videos
This paper deals with the computation of robust iris templates from video sequences. The main contribution is to propose (i) optimal tracking and robust detection of the pupil, (ii) smart selection of iris images to be enrolled, and (iii) multi-thread and quality-driven decomposition of tasks to reach real-time processing. The evaluation of the system was done on the Multiple Biometric Grand Ch...
متن کاملRobust Iris Recognition in Unconstrained Environments
A biometric system provides automatic identification of an individual based on a unique feature or characteristic possessed by him/her. Iris recognition (IR) is known to be the most reliable and accurate biometric identification system. The iris recognition system (IRS) consists of an automatic segmentation mechanism which is based on the Hough transform (HT). This paper presents a robust IRS i...

متن کاملOverview of the Multiple Biometrics Grand Challenge
The goal of the Multiple Biometrics Grand Challenge (MBGC) is to improve the performance of face and iris recognition technology from biometric samples acquired under unconstrained conditions. The MBGC is organized into three challenge problems. Each challenge problem relaxes the acquisition constraints in different directions. In the Portal Challenge Problem, the goal is to recognize people fr...
