A method of detecting attempted fraud against a system recognising the iris of the human eye includes generation of a first image of an iris using first means of image capture in a visible light spectrum, and generation of a second image of said iris using second means of image capture in a near infra-red spectrum. The method also includes determination of at least one characteristic of the first image as a function of respective optical characteristics of pixels of a plurality of pixels of this first image and determination of at least one characteristic of the second image determined as a function of respective luminous intensities of pixels of a plurality of pixels of this second image. As a function of these determined characteristics, a signal representative of suspected detection of attempted fraud is generated.

Method of detecting fraud of an iris recognition system

The invention presents a process for determining a video as being a spoof or a genuine recording of a live biometric characteristic, characterized in that it comprises the steps of:

Process and system for video spoof detection based on liveness evaluation

A method for identifying and/or authenticating an individual by a system including a storage device storing at least one binary code of a reference iris and a binary code of an associated reference mask: acquisition of an image of an eye of the individual, segmentation of the acquired image to isolate a region containing the texture of the iris and determine an associated mask, division of the region and the mask into N2 concentric rings, normalization of the region, determination of a binary iris code IC and a binary code of mask IM matching at least one ring of the iris with a ring of the reference iris to minimize a matching distance between the acquired image and the reference image, computation of the minimized matching distance, identification and/or authentication of the individual if the minimized matching distance is less than a predetermined threshold.
