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...

purpose: to demonstrate an approach to the problems of cataract surgery in extensive iridoschisis methods: four eyes of 2 patients with extensive iridoschisis had cataract surgery by the same surgeon using the techniques that resembled techniques for phacoemulsification in intraoperative floppy iris syndrome (ifis). we used low flow parameters on phacoemulsification, used super-cohesive ophthal...

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 this pa...

phytoplankton taxa composition of the caspian sea were evaluated by using samples collected at 12 stations along the iranian coast of the caspian sea between 1996 and 2010. this study identified 158 phytoplankton species consisted of diatoms (70 species), dinoflagellates (23 species), chlorophytes (29 species), cyanophytes (31 species), and euglenoids (5 species). the dominant species were the ...

Ruby-throated Bulbul Rubigula dispar, currently Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List owing to trade pressure, is considered monotypic across its range three Sundaic islands in Indonesia: Sumatra, Java and Bali. However, examination of photographs museum specimen labels measurement 37 Sumatran 50 Javan specimens indicate that birds from Sumatra differ those (type locality) Bali exhibiting a variably ...

a total of 90 species, belonging to 29 genera and 15 families, observed from an urban wetland of meghalaya is the species-rich rotifera assemblage known till date from any sub-tropical ecosystem of the indian sub-region. total richness (s) merits biodiversity value as ~56.0, ~ 38.0 and ~23.0 % of the species recorded from meghalaya, northeast india (nei) and india, respectively while several ro...

Background: A number of ocular biometric parameters, iris hiotologic and anatomic characters have been suggested as inciting factors for converting patients with narrow angle to angle-closure glaucoma. This study was conducted to determine if there was any goniscopic difference between patients with acute angle-closure glaucoma (AACG) and chronic angle-closure glaucoma (CACG). Methods: ...
