Abstract

Iris recognition has been around for many years due to an extensive research on the uniqueness of human iris. It is well known that the iris is not similar to each other which means every human in the planet has their own iris pattern and cannot be shared. One of the main issues in iris recognition is iris segmentation. One element that can reduce the accuracy of iris segmentation is the presence of specular reflection. Another issue is the speed of specular reflection removal since the iris recognition system needs to process a lot of irises. In this paper, a specular reflection removal method was proposed to achieve a fast and accurate specular reflection removal. Some modifications were implemented on the existing pixels properties method. Based on the results, the proposed method achieved the fastest execution time, the highest segmentation accuracy and the highest SSIM compared to the other methods. This proves that the proposed method is fast and accurate to be implemented in the iris recognition systems.

Abstract

Iris recognition used the iris features to verify and identify the identity of human. The iris has many advantages such as stability over time, easy to use and high recognition accuracy. However, the poor quality of iris images can degrade the recognition accuracy of iris recognition system. The recognition accuracy of this system is depended on the iris pattern quality captured during the iris acquisition. The iris pattern quality can degrade due to the blurry image. Blurry image happened due to the movement during image acquisition and poor camera resolution. Due to that, a deblurring method based on the Wiener filter was proposed to improve the quality of iris pattern. This work is significant since the proposed method can enhance the quality of iris pattern in the blurry image. Based to the results, the proposed method improved the quality of iris pattern in the blurry image. Moreover, it recorded the fastest execution time to improve the quality of iris pattern compared to the other methods.
