Abstract
The present invention provides a method for acquiring region-of-interest and/or cognitive information from an eye image, comprising the steps of: preprocessing, standardizing, and coding the group of eye images for region-of-interest information or cognitive information to create eye image codes and to build a characteristic eye library in a memory in order to improve an iris recognition rate; grouping and partitioning or covering eye codes for eye images stored in the characteristic eye library into a plurality of groups, and obtaining a representative eye code of each of the eye code groups, preprocessing, standardizing, and coding a new eye image not assigned region-of-interest information or cognitive information in the same way as the above-described step to create a test eye code, matching the test eye image to the most similar eye image in the characteristic eye library, and transferring the region-of-interest information or cognitive information assigned to the matched eye image to the test eye image. The transferred information is utilized in the preprocessing of the eye image.
