- Iris region is small, esp. from distance
- combine periocular region to increase detection region
Current status
- mostly use ideal faces and iris images
- frontal face
- high res. eye region image
- issues
- only 2D
Proposed method
- 3D shape
- 2D LBP
- to obtain 2D periocular region, first register 2D with 3D shape using facial landmark
- 3D shape matching, ICP
- distance matching score between probed periocular 3D point cloud and that from gallery
- fusion of 3D and 2D
Experiment
- Bosphorus DB
- 3D face dataset
- 105 subject
- 4,666 face scans
Results
- 3D > 20% better than 2D texture
- Intra-class variations
