Iris Recognition

Computer scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) demonstrates that iris recognition algorithms can maintain their accuracy and interoperability for large-scale identity management applicaiton such as cyber security and counterterrorism. Iris recognition has emerged as the second most popular biometric characteristic. The primary work on the technologies is establishing standards for computer algorithms in iris recognition. Currently, there are three competing impage formats and three compression methods going for the international standard.
