Iris Recognition Using Scattering Transform and Textural Features
Iris recognition has drawn a lot of attention since the mid-twentieth
century. Among all biometric features, iris is known to possess a rich set of
features. Different features have been used to perform iris recognition in the
past. In this paper, two powerful sets of features are introduced to be used
for iris recognition: scattering transform-based features and textural
features. PCA is also applied on the extracted features to reduce the
dimensionality of the feature vector while preserving most of the information
of its initial value. Minimum distance classifier is used to perform template
matching for each new test sample. The proposed scheme is tested on a
well-known iris database, and showed promising results with the best accuracy
rate of 99.2%
