Abstract
Iris recognition is one of the reliable biometric techniques used for human identification purpose. It provides the unique information about a person with natural features such as both the left and right eye irises of a person is different and stable with the age and also the quality of the iris is not affected by contact lenses and eyeglasses. The authors suggested that iris recognition fails due to the tedious process involved during localization. The failure rate can be decreased by performing edge detection with a suitable localization algorithm. The authors proved that histogram equalization is one of the best image enhancement techniques to process an image with probability density function of different gray-level values. The edges of an image are identified using an edge detection algorithm using mean value and threshold values, and the localization of an image is rectified by the neighbors of a pixel and structuring element morphological operations. Compare the performance of the algorithms and prove that the localization of an edge using the structuring element of the morphological operation produces the best results compared with other morphological operations using the neighbors of a pixel.
