Abstract
A system and method for determining whether an eye image includes a left eye or a right eye image is described. After obtaining an eye image, the centers of the iris and pupil in the eye image are located. A horizontal displacement between the centers of the iris and pupil is determined. In addition, neural network classifiers are used to perform eye corner detection to identify inner and outer eye corners in the image. A determination is made as to whether the eye image includes a left eye image or a right eye image based on the detected eye corners and horizontal displacement.
