A New Biometric Modality Based on Conjunctival Vasculature

Abstract: A new biometric indicator based on the patterns of conjunctival vasculature is proposed. Conjunctival vessels can be observed on the visible part of the sclera that is exposed to the outside world. These vessels demonstrate rich and specific details in visible light, and can be easily photographed using a regular digital camera. In this paper we discuss methods for conjunctival imaging, preprocessing, and feature extraction in order to derive a suitable conjunctival vascular template for biometric authenticati… Show more

“…From manual to semi-automated and lastly, it comes to fully automated. Previously study is manual based segmentation, it has been applied by [4] and [5] the study is an unreliable approach for real-time applications because of the human supervision required with the segmentation process and the expensive processing time. In the semi-automated method suggested by [6], [7] and [8] based on K-means clustering, the eyelids included in the resulting sclera image were manually corrected.…”

“…Various techniques for sclera vessel enhancement are found in literature. The first recognized work on sclera vessels enhancement is recorded in [33]. In [29] for image registration a local affine and a global smooth transformation was applied.…”

“…However, as the conjunctiva is the toprecord transparent layer of the sclera and images of the sclera region capture more than just this top-most layer, it is more specific to refer to the scheme as performing "sclera identification". In [10], Derakhshani et. al.…”
