Lowering the Barrier to IREX Participation: Open-Source Algorithms, Toolkit, and Benchmarking for Iris Recognition
Siamul Karim Khan, Patrick J. Flynn, Adam Czajka
NIST Iris Exchange (IREX) offers an appealing solution to evaluating new open-source iris recognition algorithms, but it presents high barriers to entry because these algorithms mu…
Beyond Mortality: Advancements in Post-Mortem Iris Recognition through Data Collection and Computer-Aided Forensic Examination
Rasel Ahmed Bhuiyan, Parisa Farmanifard, Renu Sharma +7
Post-mortem iris recognition brings both hope to the forensic community (a short-term but accurate and fast means of verifying identity) as well as concerns to society (its potenti…
Restricted Receptive Fields for Face Verification
Kagan Ozturk, Aman Bhatta, Haiyu Wu +2
Understanding how deep neural networks make decisions is crucial for analyzing their behavior and diagnosing failure cases. In computer vision, a common approach to improve interpr…
EyePreserve: Identity-Preserving Iris Synthesis
Siamul Karim Khan, Patrick Tinsley, Mahsa Mitcheff +3
Synthesis of same-identity biometric iris images, both for existing and non-existing identities, while preserving the identity across a wide range of pupil sizes, is complex due to…
Improved Ear Verification with Vision Transformers and Overlapping Patches
Deeksha Arun, Kagan Ozturk, Kevin W. Bowyer +1
Ear recognition has emerged as a promising biometric modality due to the relative stability in appearance during adulthood. Although Vision Transformers (ViTs) have been widely use…
