Abstract :
Iris recognition has been shown to be very accurate for human identification. We investigate the performance of the use of a partial iris for recognition. A partial iris identification system based on a one-dimensional approach to iris identification is developed. Experiment results show that a more distinguishable and individually unique signal is found in the inner rings of the iris. The results also show that it is possible to use only a portion of the iris for human identification.
