Abstract
A method and system for detecting eye corners using neural network classifiers is described. After an eye image is received, the eye image may be processed by at least two neural network classifiers including an inner eye corner neural network classifier and an outer eye corner neural network classifier. The neural network classifiers provide periocular information including a distance or coordinates of an eye corner location from a center of an iris of the eye, and an outcome of whether the eye corner is an inner eye corner or an outer eye corner. Output from the various neural network classifiers are combined to generate a decision on the location of eye corners in an eye image.
