A Robust Iris Identification System Based on Wavelet Packet Decomposition and Local Comparisons of the Extracted Signatures

Blog Article

Abstract This paper presents a complete iris identification system including three main stages: iris segmentation, signature extraction, and signature comparison.An accurate and robust pupil and iris segmentation process, taking into account eyelid occlusions, is first detailed and evaluated.Then, an original wavelet-packet-based signature extraction method and a novel identification approach, based on the Birth Flower Name Necklace fusion of local distance measures, are proposed.

Performance measurements validating the proposed iris signature and demonstrating the benefit of our local-based signature comparison are provided.Moreover, an exhaustive evaluation of robustness, with regards to LADIES SHOES FLAT the acquisition conditions, attests the high performances and the reliability of our system.Tests have been conducted on two different databases, the well-known CASIA database (V3) and our ISEP database.

Finally, a comparison of the performances of our system with the published ones is given and discussed.
