Iris Recognition Using Discrete Wavelet Transform

We propose a novel approach for improved iris recognition system with reduced false acceptance rate (FAR) and false rejection rate (FRR). The technique developed here uses all the frequency resolution planes of discrete wavelet transform (DWT). These frequency planes provide abundant texture information present in an iris at different resolutions. The accuracy is improved up to 98.98%. With proposed method FAR and FRR is reduced up to 0.0071% and 1.0439% respectively.
