Accurate iris recognition requires effective eyelash detection. This study presents a novel method to accurately detect both separable and multiple eyelashes, improving iris recognition system performance.

Area of Science:

  • Biometrics
  • Computer Vision
  • Image Processing

Background:

  • Eyelash occlusions pose a significant challenge in iris recognition systems.
  • Unfavorable imaging conditions exacerbate eyelash noise, affecting iris localization and feature extraction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate an accurate eyelash detection method for robust iris recognition.
  • To address the impact of eyelash noise on iris localization and feature extraction.

Main Methods:

  • Classified eyelashes into separable and multiple types.
  • Employed a local intensity minimum algorithm for separable eyelashes.
  • Utilized template mean and standard deviation for multiple eyelashes detection.

Main Results:
