Kamil Grabowski, Wojciech Sankowski, Mariusz Zubert, M. Napieralska · 2006
Iris recognition is accepted as one of the best biometric method. Implementing this method to the practical system requires the special preprocessing where the iris localization plays a crucial role. Iris localization consists of finding the iris boundaries as well as eyelids. In this paper a simple iris localization algorithm is proposed based on iris image segmentation with histogram analysis. Proposed solution was applied for images taken under near infrared light
