The biometric person identification technique based on the pattern of the human iris is a verycostly top secure application. This paper describes a personal identification system based onthe human iris imaging through providing a set of algorithms that describes image acquisition,image segmentation, feature extraction and pattern forming. For image acquisition, we presentan image enhancement algorithm in order to get more accurate image feature results. Inaddition, we propose a boundary localization algorithm, which used to find the pupilboundary. A new iris recognition method that analyzes local variations of the iris is used toconstruct a Feature Selection Vector (FSV) that can be used to extract features of any irisimage size. Extensive experimental results using Pearson's correlation coefficient to verifyone’s identity on CASIA iris images database shows that the proposed system is effective andencouraging.
