Iris recognition is one of the most reliable methods for identification. In general, itconsists of image acquisition, iris segmentation, feature extraction and matching. Among them, iris segmentation has an important role on the performance of any iris recognition system. Eyes nonlinear movement, occlusion, and specular reflection are main challenges for any iris segmentation method. In thi...

To investigate the biological activities of anthocyanins, which are induced by cadmium in A. imbricata, the antioxidant properties of anthocyanins were investigated using various antioxidant assays, namely 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity, reducing power, and β-carotene bleac...

Biometric recognition is an automatic identification method which is based on unique features or characteristics possessed by human beings and Iris recognition has proved itself as one of the most reliable biometric methods available owing to the accuracy provided by its unique epigenetic patterns. The main steps in any iris recognition system are image acquisition, iris segmentation, iris norm...

Rhodiola imbricata Edgew. (Rose root or Arctic root or Golden root or Shrolo), belonging to the family Crassulaceae, is an important food crop and medicinal plant in the Indian trans-Himalayan cold desert. Chemometric profile of the n-hexane, chloroform, dichloroethane, ethyl acetate, methanol, and 60% ethanol root extracts of R. imbricata were performed by hyphenated gas chromatography mass sp...

in the current iris recognition systems, noise removing step is only used to detect noisy parts of the iris region and features extracted from there will be excluded in matching step. whereas depending on the filter structure used in feature extraction, the noisy parts may influence relevant features. to the best of our knowledge, the effect of noise factors on feature extraction has not been c...

with an increasing emphasis on security, automated personal identification based on biometrics has been receiving extensive attention. iris recognition, as an emerging biometric recognition approach, is becoming a very active topic in both research and practical applications. in general, a typical iris recognition system includes iris imaging, iris liveness detection, and recognition. this rese...
