Abstract
Retinal recognition by using compression-based joint wavelet transform correlator (CBJWTC) is proposed in order to solve poor contrast problem of fundus images. The simulation results show that by using a wavelet filter dilated at a proper dilation, the CBJWTC offers better recognition performance than the conventional JTC, regardless of the reference contrast.
