Iris Recognition Based on Combined Feature of GLCM and Wavelet Transform

Abstract

Iris biometric is considered to be one of the most efficient and trusted biometric method for authenticating users. This paper presents a method for iris recognition based on hybrid feature set of wavelet and GLCM features, a non-filter based technique, combined with Haar wavelet transform to increase the efficiency of the system. Here we combine frequency domain feature with spatial domain feature to increase overall efficiency of system. Probability neural Network is used to classify the features. Results show that the overall system efficiency is 94% with false rejection rate higher than false acceptance rate. The technique is tested on CASIA Iris database.
