Iris recognition based on bant-limited phase correlation

In this paper, an iris recognition method based on phase correlation works on infrared iris images is explained. Pupil region is obtained using an edge detection based method and iris pattern is extracted. Iris pattern is normalized utilizing polar coordinate transform and enhanced using local histogram equalization. Iris matching is performed on database using band-limited phase correlation [8]. The method is evaluated on Casia Iris Database V3.0 [9] and results of recognition performance are given.
