3. Retina Recognition
The robust representations for
recognition must be invariant to changes in
the size, position, and orientation of the
patterns. In the case of retina recognition, it
creates a representation that is invariant to
the optical size of the iris in the image the Fig.2 (b) Retinal vascular tree
size of the retina the location of the retina
within the image and the retina orientation.
Fig.2 shows the sample retina recognition.
Fortunately, invariance to all of these factors
can readily be achieved and hence this
overcomes all the above drawbacks that are
present in most other authentication
techniques used in biometrics. The blood
vessel pattern of the retina does not or rarely

The proposed person authentication
scheme contains three basic processes:
feature extraction, template generation, and
template matching.
