Iris recognition is the mean of biometric identification using very large amount of iris database taken without contact to the human body. Basically three main methods are available to process iris data, out of which in this paper, an iris image synthesis method based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Independent component analysis (ICA) and Daugman’s rubber sheet model& hybrid model is pr...

Iris nevus is common: 6% of patients with suspected iris melanoma have lesions other than melanoma, and 36% of them are nevi. Iris nevus turns into melanoma in approximately 8% of cases at a mean of 15 years. This case report provides the first description of an iris tumor examined with iris optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) compared to iris fluorescein angiography (IFA). A 60-yea...

BACKGROUND Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) reflects an aberrant immune response that can develop in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients initiating antiretroviral therapy (ART). Its pathogenesis remains unclear. METHODS We performed a nested case-control study using specimens from ACTG A5164. We compared plasma biomarkers and T-cell subsets in 19 IRIS and 39 contr...

Article Information The non-intrusive property of iris recognition leads to several problems to the images of natural-open eyes and it is hard to increase the accuracy of iris recognition because of these problems. In order to ensure the non-intrusive property as well as achieve an iris recognition which has high accuracy simultaneously, this paper presents a novel iris recognition method based...

The roles of the iris microvasculature have been increasingly recognised in the pathogenesis of glaucoma and cataract; however limited information exists regarding the iris microvasculature and its endothelium. This study quantitatively assessed the iris microvascular network and its endothelium using intra-luminal micro-perfusion, fixation, and staining of the porcine iris. The temporal long p...

Iris recognition has been developing for over 20 years, but, only in recent years has it been more accessible and widely accepted as one of the most accurate and un-obtrusive biometric modalities. Over the past few years, many companies have developed iris acquisition systems that are more user-friendly. Iris-On-the-Move (IOM) is one such system, offering significant stand-off acquisition dista...

BACKGROUND We evaluated predictors and outcomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteremia among participants undergoing baseline mycobacterial blood culture in the ACTG A5221 STRIDE study, a randomized clinical trial comparing earlier with later ART among HIV-infected patients suspected of having tuberculosis with CD4-positive T-lymphocyte counts (CD4 counts) <250 cells/mm(3). We conducted a sec...

purpose : we describe our experience on safety and effectiveness of phacoemulsification in cataract and congenital iris coloboma and point out some specific surgical recommendations aimed to minimize its complications. methods : a prospective case series study was conducted on nineteen consecutive patients with cataract and congenital iris coloboma referred to the farabi eye hospital in tehran....
