Abstract

This paper proposes the utility of texture and color for iris recognition systems. It contributes for improvement of system accuracy with reduced feature vector size of just 1 × 3 and reduction of false acceptance rate (FAR) and false rejection rate (FRR). It avoids the iris normalization process used traditionally in iris recognition systems. Proposed method is compared with the existing methods. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method using only color achieves 99.9993 accuracy, 0.0160 FAR, and 0.0813 FRR. Computational time efficiency achieved is of 947.7 ms.
