    • Evaluation of Combined Visible/NIR Camera for Iris Authentication on smartphones 

      Thavalengal, Shejin; Bigioi, Petronel; Corcoran, Peter (IEEE, 2015)
      Iris biometrics provide a mature and robust method of authentication, but are typically applied in a controlled environment and under constrained acquisition conditions. In this paper, the adaption of iris biometrics for ...
    • Iris authentication in handheld devices - considerations for constraint-free acquisition 

      Corcoran, Peter; Bigioi, Petronel; Thavalengal, Shejin (IEEE, 2015-05)
      As a near ideal biometric, iris authentication is widely used and mobile acquisition techniques are known. But iris acquisition on handheld imaging devices, such as smartphones, poses multiple, unique challenges. In this ...
    • Iris liveness detection for next generation smartphones 

      Thavalengal, Shejin; Nedelcu, Tudor; Bigioi, Petronel; Corcoran, Peter (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2016-07-19)
      This paper presents a novel liveness detection method that exploits the acquisition workflow for iris biometrics on smartphones using a hybrid visible (RGB)/near infra-red (NIR) sensor. These devices are able to capture ...
    • Iris recognition on consumer devices - challenges and progress 

      Thavalengal, Shejin; Corcoran, Peter (IEEE, 2015-11-11)
      This article outlines various technical, social and ethical challenges in implementing and widely adopting iris recognition technology on consumer devices such as smartphone or tablets. Acquisition of sufficient quality ...
    • A practical challenge for iris authentication on handheld imaging devices 

      Thavalengal, Shejin; Corcoran, Peter (IEEE, 2015)
      Following on the introduction of fingerprint biometrics, iris authentication for handheld imaging devices has become a hot research topic. However widespread adoption of this technology faces a significant challenge as ...
    • Proof-of-concept and evaluation of a dual function visible/NIR camera for iris authentication in smartphones 

      Thavalengal, Shejin; Andorko, Istvan; Drimbarean, Alexandru; Bigioi, Petronel; Corcoran, Peter (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015-05)
      As a robust method of person authentication, iris biometrics is making its way in to consumer devices such as smartphones. Current iris image acquisition devices typically work under controlled environment and constrained ...
    • Unconstrained palmprint as a smartphone biometric 

      Ungureanu, Adrian-Stefan; Thavalengal, Shejin; Cognard, Timothée E.; Costache, Claudia; Corcoran, Peter (IEEE, 2017-11-13)
      In this work the use of palmprints as an alternative biometric for smartphones is investigated and its feasibility is evaluated across multiple devices using unconstrained acquisition. A novel multi-device database that ...
