Abstract

Iris recognition is known as an inherently reliable technique for human identification. Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD), an adaptive multi-resolution decomposition technique, appears to be suitable for non-linear, non-stationary data analysis. Based on EMD, a fully data-driven method without using any pre-determined filter or wavelet function, an iris recognition scheme is presented by modifying EMD as a low-pass filter to analyze the iris images. To evaluate the efficacy of the proposed approach, three different similarity measures are used. Experimental results show that three metrics have all achieved promising and similar performance. Therefore, the proposed method demonstrates to be feasible for iris recognition and EMD is suitable for feature extraction.
