This paper proposes a non-orthogonal view iris recognition system with four key components: 1) A dual-camera to capture iris images using four spectra that aid segmentation; 2) An intelligent iris segmentation method to detect iris boundaries in the four-spectral images; 3) A circle rectification method to reduce off-axis iris distortion using the detected elliptical pupillary boundary; 4) A novel iris descriptor that characterizes iris patterns with multiscale edge maps extracted using derivative of Gaussian and Laplacian of Gaussian filters. Experimental results show an equal error rate of only 0.04% when recognizing iris images acquired at different off-axis angles within ±30°.

ABSTRACT This paper proposes a non-orthogonal view iris recognition system comprising a new iris imaging module, an irissegmentation module, an iris feature extraction module and a classification module. A dual-charge-coupled device camera was developed to capture four-spectral (red, green, blue, and near-infrared) iris images which contain useful information for simplifying the iris segmentation task. An intelligent random sample consensus irissegmentation method is proposed to robustly detect iris boundaries in a four-spectral iris image. In order to match iris images acquired at different off-axis angles, we propose a circle rectification method to reduce the off-axis iris distortion. The rectification parameters are estimated using the detected elliptical pupillary boundary. Furthermore, we propose a novel iris descriptor which characterizes an iris pattern with multiscale step/ridge edge-type maps. The edge-type maps are extracted with the derivative of Gaussian and the Laplacian of Gaussian filters. The iris pattern classification is accomplished by edge-type matching which can be understood intuitively with the concept of classifier ensembles. Experimental results show that the equal error rate of our approach is only 0.04% when recognizing iris images acquired at different off-axis angles within ??30??.
