The blood vessel recognition of ocular fundus

Abstract

Today, iris recognition, fingerprint recognition, face recognition, voice recognition and other biometric technology are experiencing rapid development. This paper addresses a new biometric technology - skeleton recognition for blood vessel of optic fundus. The green grayscale ocular fundus image is utilized. The skeleton feature of blood vessel of optic fundus is extracted at first. After filtering treatment and extracting feature, vector curve of blood vessels is obtained. Shape curve matching is later carried out by means of reference point matching. The recognition for blood vessel optic fundus has been demonstrated in this paper to possess high recognition rate, low recognition rejection rate as well as good universality, exclusiveness and stability. With more and more progress made in extracting technology, the optic fundus blood vessel recognition is to become an effective biometric technology.
