Its utility is specially pronounced when the iris or the face cannot be properly acquired, being the ocular modality requiring the least constrained acquisition process. It appears over a wide range of distances, even under partial face occlusion (close distance) or low resolution iris (long distance), making it very suitable for unconstrained or uncooperative scenarios. It also avoids the need of iris segmentation, an issue in difficult images. In such situation, identifying a suspect where only the periocular region is visible is one of the toughest real-world challenges in biometrics. The richness of the periocular region in terms of identity is so high that the whole face can even be reconstructed only from images of the periocular region. The technological shift to mobile devices has also resulted in many identity-sensitive applications becoming prevalent on these devices.</p> http://hh.diva-portal.org/smash/record.jsf?searchId=1&pid=diva2:1238870 53 Iris and Periocular Biometric Recognition Book Chapter IET security series ; 5 29 An Overview of Periocular Biometrics 2017 2018-08-16T20:21:42Z 2458347.3484028 An Overview of Periocular Biometrics 500 0 plainlist list 1 [[:Publications:An Overview of Periocular Biometrics]] An Overview of Periocular Biometrics# QUERY321a351d0aa8ec8d8750096b17b56b54 500 [2,"smw-datavalue-property-restricted-annotation-use","Publisher"] An Overview of Periocular Biometrics# ERR6c155b5d70b69ddb590b4f2e73389c2a 500 [2,"smw-datavalue-property-restricted-annotation-use","Author"] An Overview of Periocular Biometrics# ERRe24f17e090c98448f3de99d03182b7b6
