Iris-based biometric systems identify individuals based on the characteristics of their iris, since they are proven to remain unique for a long time. An iris recognition system includes four phases, the most important of which is preprocessing in which the iris segmentation is performed. The accuracy of an iris biometric system critically depends on the segmentation system. In this paper, an iris segmentation system using edge detection techniques and Hough transforms is presented. The newly proposed edge detection system enhances the performance of the segmentation in a way that it performs much more efficiently than the other conventional iris segmentation methods.

In this paper, some of the image processing and pattern recognition methods that have been used on medical images for cancer diagnosis are reviewed. Previous studies on Artificial Neural Networks, Genetic Programming, and Wavelet Analysis are described with their working process and advantages. The definition of each method is provided in this study, and the acknowledgement is granted for previous related research activities.
