Iris features using Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform in texture evaluation for biometrical identification

Iris characteristics are accurate and reliable for person identification. We used a new method to extract combined features for color and texture characterization using Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform. We applied this feature vectors selection on the UPOL iris color image database. The identification of the subsequent images of the same iris was obtained with competitive results.
