Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A condition based method that selects an appropriate approach among various iris and ocular image recognition algorithms for matching periocular images of a probe and target as a function of quality of images to obtain robust matching even under non-ideal acquisition scenarios.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A condition based iris recognition method comprising: measuring multiple qualities of a periocular image, including an iris; selecting an ocular recognition approach as a function of the qualities of the periocular images of a probe and a known target; and matching the probe periocular image to the target image. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the multiple qualities include ocular, periocular, iris and sub-iris (regional) q…
