Abstract

Iris recognition is an alternative authentication method. Many studies have tried to improve iris recognition as a biometric-based alternative for secure authentication. Iris segmentation is an important part of iris recognition because it defines the image region that is used for subsequent processing such as feature extraction and matching, hence directly affects the overall iris recognition performance. This work focuses on the development of an authentication system using localization methods and half-polar normalization of the iris. The proposed Zeta method uses a new model of eye segmentation and normalization that can be used simultaneously on both eyes, considering different iris patterns in those two eyes. There are seven variants of the proposed and tested Zeta method: Zeta-v1, Zeta-v2, Zeta-v3, Zeta-v4, Zeta-v5, Zeta-v6, and Zeta-v7. Overall, the method achieved an average segmentation time performance of 0.0138427 seconds. The most accurate rate was by the Zeta-v1 method, with a value threshold of 100% on the wrong rejection rate and 94.9% on the correct acceptance rate.
