Recent studies have shown that the wearing of soft lens may lead to performance degradation with the increase of false reject rate. However, detecting the presence of soft lens is a non-trivial task as its texture that almost indiscernible. In this work, we proposed a classification method to identify the existence of soft lens in iris image. Our proposed method starts with segmenting the lens boundary on top of the sclera region. Then, the segmented boundary is used as features and extracted by local descriptors. These features are then trained and classified using Support Vector Machines. This method was tested on Notre Dame Cosmetic Contact Lens 2013 database. Experiment showed that the proposed method performed better than state of the art methods.

Support Vector Machines (SVM) has been extensively studied and has shown remarkable success in many applications. However the success of SVM is very limited when it is applied to the problem of learning from imbalanced datasets in which negative instances heavily outnumber the positive instances (e.g. in medical diagnosis and detecting credit card fraud). In this paper, we propose the fuzzy asymmetric algorithm to augment SVMs to deal with imbalanced training-data problems, called FASVM, which is based on fuzzy memberships, combined with different error costs (DEC) algorithm. We compare the performance of our algorithm against these two algorithms, along with different error costs and regular SVM and show that our algorithm outperforms all of them.
