摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided for dividing an image into a plurality of image chips for presentation on a display. Potential objects of interest are detected within an image by detecting features therein that correspond to objects of interest. The image is uniformly divided into a plurality of preliminary image chips. Triage image chips are generated by automatically adjusting each preliminary image chip such that the potential objects of interest detected within each preliminary image chip are at least substantially centered in each preliminary image chip.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus are provided for recognizing particular objects of interest in a captured image. One or more salient features that are correlative to an object of interest are detected within a captured image. The captured image is segmented into one or more regions of interest that include a detected salient feature. A covariance appearance model is generated for each of the one or more regions of interest, and first and second comparisons are conducted. The first comparisons comprise comparing each of the generated covariance appearance models to a plurality of stored covariance appearance models, and the second comparisons comprise comparing each of the generated covariance appearance models to each of the other generated covariance appearance model. Based on the first and second comparisons, a determination is made as to whether each of the one or more detected salient features is a particular object of interest.

摘要:
An iris recognition system having pupil and iris border conditioning prior to iris mapping and analysis. The system may obtain and filter an image of an eye. A pupil of the mage may be selected and segmented. Portions of the pupil border can be evaluated and pruned. A curve may be fitted on at least the invalid portions of the pupil border. The iris of the eye with an acceptable border of the pupil as an inside border of the iris may be selected from the image. The iris outside border having sclera and eyelash/lid boundaries may be grouped using a cluster angular range based on eye symmetry. The sclera boundaries may be fitted with a curve. The eyelash/lid boundaries may be extracted or masked. The iris may be segmented, mapped and analyzed.
摘要:
An iris and ocular recognition system using trace transforms. The system may acquire an eye image and provide it to an image quality metrics determination module for a quality evaluation to indicate whether the image goes to an iris recognition module and/or a trace transform module. The trace transform may also be used as a pre-filtering mechanism to determine a small database from bigger datasets. If the quality evaluation reaches a predefined quality measure, the image may be passed immediately to the iris recognition module. If not, the image may go to the trace transform module. If the quality evaluation is too poor for the latter, the image may be rejected subject to rehabilitation or reacquisition. A processed image from the iris recognition module may result in an only best match. A processed image from the trace transform module may be lined up instead with the most probable matches.
摘要:
An indexing and database search system having a system to expedite a process of matching a subject to millions (more or less) of templates within a database. Such matching or retrieval may use a subject code as a query or probe and then find a similarity measure for the features of codes or templates in the database. A multi-stage clustering process may be used to compress codes and/or templates.
摘要:
An iris recognition system implementing image quality metrics to assess the quality of an acquired eye image for reliable operation. Images with low image quality may be rejected or flagged based upon the application. The image quality may be determined with a preprocessing module in the recognition system. The processing may be configured based on a quality assessment

摘要:
A system for iris recognition using a set of quality metrics, which may include eye image validation, blur assessment, offset, gazing, obscuration, visibility, and the like. These metrics may be established as quantitative measures which can automatically assess the quality of eye images before they are processed for recognition purposes. Quadrant iris analysis, histograms, map processing enhancements, and multi-band analysis may be used in aiding in the iris recognition approach.
