An Iris Localization Method for Non-ideal Eye Images
نویسندگان
چکیده
Iris recognition is one of the emerging areas as the demand for security in social and personal areas is increasing day by day. The main and most challenging step in the process of iris recognition is iris localization. As accuracy in localization of iris significantly affect the further processing of feature extraction and template matching stages. Traditional algorithms work efficiently and accurately in localizing iris from eye images taken in constrained environmental conditions. But their accuracy is affected when eye images are taken in unconstrained environmental conditions. The proposed algorithm starts with determining the exact location of iris even in the presence of specular highlights and non-ideal environmental conditions. The proposed algorithm works well for iris images and the accuracy of segmentation stage has increased when intuitionistic fuzzy is applied on the UBIRIS

Iris localization by means of adaptive thresholding and Circular Hough Transform
In this paper, a new iris localization method for mobile devices is presented. Our system uses both intensity and saturation threshold on the captured eye images to determine iris boundary and sclera area, respectively. Estimated iris boundary pixels which have been placed outside the sclera will be removed. The remaining pixels are mainly the boundary of iris inside the sclera. Then, circular ...

متن کاملA Robust Coarse-to-Fine Method for Pupil Localization in Non-ideal Eye Images
Pupil localization is a very important preprocessing step in many machine vision applications. Accurate and robust pupil localization especially in non-ideal eye images (such as images with defocusing, motion blur, occlusion etc.) is a challenging task. In this paper, a detailed method to solve this problem is proposed. This method is implemented in three main steps: first, segment the rough pu...

Earlier state-of-art algorithms of iris recognition system works well for ideal-data, because of the perfect iris localization algorithms. The same ideal-algorithm suffers a lot under non-ideal data. Nonideal-data refers to eye image captured under unconstrained environments, such as non-uniform illumination, image captured at a distance, eye image with reflections, blurred image, off-axis eye ...

a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Commercial iris recognition systems do not perform well for non-ideal data, because their iris localization algorithms are specifically developed for controlled data. This paper presents a robust iris localization algorithm for less constrained data. It includes: (i) suppressing specular reflections; (ii) localizing the iris inner (pupil circle) and outer (...
