OVERVIEW: Iris Recognition

 Iris
Circular colored part
 Contains unique pattern

 Why Iris Recognition?

 Externally visible
 Unique to all individual
 Remains same throughout
the lifetime

5
OVERVIEW: Iris Recognition

 How?
1. Acquisition
2. Segmentation
3. Feature Encoding
4. Matching

6
OVERVIEW: IRIS

IRIS Recognition
and Identification System
7
SYSTEM OVERVIEW: Acquisition

 Good and clear image

 CASIA(Institute of Automation,
Chinese Academy of Sciences)
database
 Specifically for iris recognition

8
SYSTEM OVERVIEW: Segmentation

 Isolation of circular iris

region

1. Gaussian Smoothing
2. Edge map generation
3. Non-max suppression
4. Hysteresis Thresholding
5. Circular Hough Transform

9
SEGMENTATION: Gaussian Smoothing

 Removes noise
 Low pass filter
 Average weight more towards the
value of the central pixels

10
SEGMENTATION: EdgeMap

 Local Maximum

11
SEGMENTATION: Sobel Operator

 Two Pass operator

12
SEGMENTATION: Non-max Suppression

 Suppresses minimizing false

edges
 Locates highest points in edge
magnitude data

13
SEGMENTATION: Hysteresis Threshold

 Lower and higher threshold

 I(x,y) > th edge
 neighborhood pixels value
I(x,y) > tl weak edge
 th= .2 and tl=.19 using trial and error

14
SEGMENTATION: Circular Hough Transform

 Locates circles in edge image

 Returns the radius and center
coordinates
 computationally intensive

15
SEGMENTATION: Circular Hough Transform

16
SEGMENTATION: Circular Hough Transform

 Maximum and Minimum radius

of circle are pre-determined
 Range kept to minimal
 pupil[27,58] and iris[110,115]
rather than [27,115]
 First iris is determined and then
pupil

17
SEGMENTATION: Eyelid Removal

 Line detector algorithm

detects horizontal eyelids
 Linear Hough Transform

18
SEGMENTATION: Eyelash Removal

 Darker than background

 Removed using thresholding
of 100

19
SYSTEM OVERVIEW: Normalisation

 Unwrapping the segmented

iris into constant
rectangular dimension
 Takes into account pupil
dilation and zoom factors

20
NORMALISATION: Rubber Sheet Model

 Converts to polar co-

ordinates
 radial resolution = 20
angular resolution = 240
 Dynamic unwrapping for
each point
 Polar noise mask

21
NORMALISATION: Rubber Sheet Model

Normalised Polar Image

Polar Noise Mask

22
SYSTEM OVERVIEW: Encoding

 Converts normalised iris

into bit-wise template
 Discriminating features are
encoded

23
ENCODING: Log Gabor Filter

 Only phase information are

encoded
 Convolving with log-Gabor
Filter
 Each pixel has 0 and 1 bits
associated with them
corresponding to sign bit

24
SYSTEM OVERVIEW: Matching

 Measure of similarity or
dissimilarity between two
iris templates

25
MATCHING: Hamming Distance

 Number of bits that do not

correspond divided by total
bits

 Modified Hamming
Distance to account for
noise

26
MATCHING: Hamming Distance

 Shifting done to incorporate

rotational inconsistency
 1 shift = 1.5 degree, for 240
degrees angular resolution

27
RESULTS

 FAR
 accepting the wrong
match
 FRR
 rejecting the correct
match
 Threshold Hamming
Distance = 0.36
 FAR = 11.28%
 FRR = 3.09%
