Abstract
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.
