Multimodal eye recognition can improve the biometric systems recognition accuracy by combining iris and sclera recognition. However, poor quality images can significantly affect the system performance. In this paper, we proposed a quality fusion based multimodal eye recognition. Our quality measure evaluated the entire eye image quality, iris area quality, and sclera area quality. The experimental results show that our overall iris and sclera quality scores are highly correlated to recognition accuracy, and our quality fusion based eye recognition can improve and predict the performance of eye recognition systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations –citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
