Abstract:In Daugman's iris recognition method, the application points determine which pixels of the normalized iris images will be used in the matching stage of the algorithm. In his work, those points are chosen in an equidistant form, referenced here as homogeneous distribution. The homogeneous distribution of these points, often selects pixels that represent eyelids, eyelashes and specular reflections, occlusions that should be extracted from the matching step. A binary mask (occlusion mask), in the matching step, e… Show more
