Description
Summary:Extrema points are usually applied to solve everyday problems, for example, to determine the potential of a created tool and for optimisation. In this study, extrema points were used to help determine the region of interest (ROI) for the iris in iris recognition systems. Iris recognitionis an automated method of biometric identification that uses mathematical pattern-recognition techniques on the images of one or both irises of an individual' seyes, where the complex patterns are unique, stable, and can be seen from a distance. In order to obtain accurate results, the iris must be localised correctly. Hence, to address this issue, this paper proposed a method of iris localisation in the case of ideal and non-ideal iris images. In this study, the algorithm was based on finding the classification for the region of interest (ROI) with the help of a Support Vector Machine (SVM) by applying a histogram of grey level values as a descriptor in each region from the region growing technique. The valid ROI was found from the probabilities graph of the SVM obtained by looking at the global minimum conditions determined by a second derivative model in a graph of functions. Furthermore, the model from the global minimum condition values was used in the test phase, and the results showed that the ROI image obtained helped in the elimination of sensitive noise with the involvement of fewer computations, while reserving relevant information.
