Optimisation of JPEG XR Quantisation Settings in Iris Recognition Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
JPEG XR is considered as a lossy sample data compression scheme in the context of iris recognition techniques. It is shown that by optimising the JPEG XR quantisation strategy, JPEG XR default quantisation as well as JPEG2000 based iris recognition can be improved in terms of EER. The optimised JPEG XR quantisation strategy shows good performance across a wide range of iris feature extraction techniques, but has to be adapted for each target bitrate separately. Keywords-JPEG XR; iris recognition; quantisation optimisation; EER.

Custom Design of JPEG Quantisation Tables for Compressing Iris Polar Images to Improve Recognition Accuracy
Custom JPEG quantisation matrices are proposed to be used in the context of compressing iris polar images within iris recognition. These matrices are obtained by employing a Genetic algorithm for the corresponding optimisation. Superior matching results in iris recognition in terms of average Hamming distance and improved ROC are found as compared to the use of the default JPEG quantisation table.
متن کاملEffects of JPEG XR Compression Settings on Iris Recognition Systems
The distortions introduced by lossy compression artifacts usually interfere with subsequent feature extraction and may degrade the matching results. In particular, FRR or FNMR will increase (since features of the data of legitimate users are extracted less accurately from compressed data) which in turn affects user convenience and general acceptance of the biometric system. In extreme cases, ev...
متن کاملLossless Compression of Polar Iris Image Data
The impact of using different lossless compression algorithms when compressing biometric iris sample data from several public iris databases is investigated. In particular, the application of dedicated lossless image codecs (lossless JPEG, JPEG-LS, PNG, and GIF), lossless variants of lossy codecs (JPEG2000, JPEG XR, and SPIHT), and a few general purpose file compression schemes is compared. We ...
