Iris Recognition in Cases of Eye Pathology

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Biometrics under Biomedical Considerations

Part of the book series: Series in BioEngineering ((SERBIOENG))

Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to provide an insight on iris recognition system performances for users suffering from some ocular pathologies. Such situations are analyzed in terms of influences and possible means are discussed to take this case into account during the phase of iris samples matching.
