Abstract: One of the biometric techniques utilized to predict the human is based on the iris. The recognition of iris is performed by discovering an individual without human intervention utilizing the iris of human eyes. Iris offers distinct information about the person. This research presents deep learning strategy for performing iris recognition. Primarily, image is pre-processed to obtain exact region iris. Then, region of iris is extracted using Hough Transform, followed by segmentation and normalization of iris region using Daugman’s rubber sheet model. Once segmentation is performed, the features are generated with ScaT-LOOP that is the combination of Scattering Transform (ST), Tetrolet transforms (TT), Local Gradient Pattern (LGP) and Local Optimal Oriented Pattern (LOOP). Finally, steepest gradient-based Deep Belief Network (DBN) is utilized for recognizing the iris. The performance of iris recognition using the DBN classifier is computed based on accuracy, False Rejection Rate (FRR), and False Acceptance Rate (FAR). The proposed method achieves maximum accuracy of 97.96%, minimal FAR of 0.493%, and minimal FRR of 0.48% that indicates its superiority.
