Shrnutí:Iris and Periocular biometrics has proved its effectiveness in accurately verifying the subject of interest. Recent improvements in visible spectrum Iris and Periocular verification have further boosted its application to unconstrained scenarios. However existing visible Iris verification systems suffer from low quality samples because of the limited depth-of-field exhibited by the conventional Iris capture systems. In this work, we propose a robust Iris and Periocular erification scheme in visible spectrum using Light Field Camera (LFC). Since the light field camera can provide multiple focus images in single capture, we are motivated to investigate its applicability for robust Iris and Periocular verification by exploring its all-in-focus property. Further, the use of all-in-focus property will extend the depth-of-focus and overcome the problem of focus that plays a predominant role in robust Iris and Periocular verification. We first collect a new Iris and Periocular biometric database using both light field and conventional camera by simulating real life scenarios. We then propose a new scheme for feature extraction and classification by exploring the combination of Local Binary Patterns (LBP) and Sparse Reconstruction Classifier (SRC). Extensive experiments are carried out on the newly collected database to bring out the merits and demerits on applicability of light field camera for Iris and Periocular verification. Finally, we also present the results on combining the information from Iris and Periocular biometrics using weighted sum rule.
