Opis

More than 100 trillion iris comparisons are now being performed on a daily basis, a number that is rapidly growing. This is breath-taking progress for a field that is arguably just twenty years old.The first book of its kind devoted entirely to the subject, the Handbook of Iris Recognition introduces the reader to this exciting, rapidly developing, technology of today and tomorrow. Blending insights from the editors' own work, and exploiting their broad overview of the field, this authoritative collection introduces the reader to the state of the art in iris recognition technology.Topics and features: with a Foreword by the "father of iris recognition," Professor John Daugman of Cambridge University; presents work from an international selection of preeminent researchers, reflecting the uses of iris recognition in many different social contexts; provides viewpoints from researchers in government, industry and academia, highlighting how iris recognition is both a thriving industry and an active research area; surveys previous developments in the field, and covers topics ranging from the low-level (e.g., physics of iris image acquisition) to the high level (e.g., alternative non-Daugman approaches to iris matching); introduces many active and open areas of research in iris recognition, including cross-wavelength matching and iris template aging.This comprehensive text/reference is an essential resource for anyone wishing to improve their understanding of iris recognition technology, be they practitioners in industry, managers and executives, or researchers searching for new insights and ideas.

Recenzje

From the book reviews:

"The book consists of 18 chapters with very detailed analysis of state of the art in particular areas of Iris Recognition technology. ... The handbook will be very useful to anyone interested in or currently working in iris recognition; the presented collection will be a real table-book." (Valery Starovoitov, IAPR Newsletter, Vol. 36 (2), April, 2014)

"Springer has published Handbook of Iris Recognition, which contains 19 contributed chapters from 42 different researchers ... . this is a book well balanced and well worth having in one's professional library ... . With this clear labour of love, Burge and Bowyer have made an outstanding contribution to our science of automated human recognition, for which they and the contributors are to be strongly congratulated." (James Wayman, IET Biometrics, Vol. 3 (1), 2014)

"...an excellent summary of the state of theory, technology, and applications of the important biometric identification modality that uses the characteristics of the iris. ...For anyone interested in iris recognition, this book is indispensable." (Creed Jones, ACM Computing Reviews, May, 2013)

More than 100 trillion iris comparisons are now being performed on a daily basis, a number that is rapidly growing. This is breath-taking progress for a field that is arguably just twenty years old.

The first book of its kind devoted entirely to the subject, the Handbook of Iris Recognition introduces the reader to this exciting, rapidly developing, technology of today and tomorrow. Blending insights from the editors’ own work, and exploiting their broad overview of the field, this authoritative collection introduces the reader to the state of the art in iris recognition technology.

Topics and features:

• With a Foreword by the “father of iris recognition,” Professor John Daugman of Cambridge University
• Presents work from an international selection of preeminent researchers, reflecting the uses of iris recognition in many different social contexts
• Provides viewpoints from researchers in government, industry and academia, highlighting how iris recognition is both a thriving industry and an active research area
• Surveys previous developments in the field, and covers topics ranging from the low-level (e.g., physics of iris image acquisition) to the high level (e.g., alternative non-Daugman approaches to iris matching)
• Introduces many active and open areas of research in iris recognition, including cross-wavelength matching and iris template aging
