Comparison of compression algorithms' impact on iris recognition accuracy II: revisiting JPEG

The impact of using different lossy compression algorithms on the recognition accuracy of iris recognition systems is investigated. In particular, we consider the general purpose still image compression algorithms JPEG, JPEG2000, SPIHT, and PRVQ and assess their impact on ROC of two different iris recognition systems when applying compression to iris sample data.
