Human iris is  a good subject of biometrical identification, since  iris patterns are unique like fingerprints. Iris is well protected against damage, unlike fingerprints, which can be harder to recognize after years of certain types of manual labor.A problem of iris recognition is considered in the paper. In machine learning, pattern recognition is the assignment of a label to a given input value. Pattern classification is an example of pattern recognition: it attempts to assign each input value to one of a given set of classes. Nowadays various techniques are used for this purpose, and in particular artificial neural networks.For iris recognition problem solving  Kohenen Self Organizing Maps are suggested to use. The software for iris recognition is developed  which is customizable and allows to select the appropriate parameters of the neural network to obtain the most satisfactory results. The developed Self-Organizing Map Library of classes can be used for various kinds of object classification problem solving as well as for any problems suitable to solve with Self-Organizing Maps.


Biometric identification is highly reliable for human identification. Biometric is a field of science used for analyzing the physiological or behavioural characteristics of human. Iris features are unique, stable and can be visible from longer distances. It uses mathematical pattern-recognition techniques on video images of one or both iris of an individual's. Compared to other biometric traits, iris is more challenging and highly secured tool to identify the individual. In this paper iris recognition based on the combination of Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), Inverse Discrete Wavelet Transform (IDWT), Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and Binariezed Statistical Image Features (BSIF) are adopted to generate the hybrid iris features. The first level and second level DWT are employed in order to extract the more unique features of the iris images. The concept of bicubic interpolation is applied on high frequency coefficients generated by first level decomposition of DWT to produce new set of sub-bands. The approximation band generated by second level decomposition of DWT and new set of sub-bands produced by second level decomposition of DWT are applied on IDWT to reconstruct the coefficients. The ICA 5x5 filters and BSIF are adopted for selecting the appropriate images to extract the final features. Finally based on the matching score between the database image and test image the genuine and imposters are identified. Using CASIA database, training and testing of the features is performed and performance is evaluated considering different combinations of Person inside Database (PID) and Person outside Database (POD).

The automatic iris recognition has become one of the most important techniques for authenticating the identity of individuals. The analysis of human iris is a reliable tool for the individual authentication due to the iris structure. Iris patterns constitute one of the uniqueness, permanence, and performance biometric traits. Moreover, the iris is considered as not easily tampered biometric traits. Therefore, this paper considers investigating the common automated methods of iris recognition. It surveys the development of utilizing iris images as an authentication means through the explanation of the historical improvement of the processes of the iris analysis. The contribution of this paper is to provide readers with huge information collected and discussed from more than 40 papers of iris recognition studies which have been published in a period of more than 20 years.
