Post-Mortem Iris Recognition
This project aims at delivering new iris recognition methods that can be applied to identify deceased subjects. In our past research we have demonstrated that post-mortem iris recognition can be viable until approximately 3 weeks after death if bodies are kept in the mortuary. Current research topics include (a) dynamics of deterioration in iris recognition performance and biological reasons of that deterioration, (b) development of new computer vision methods for processing of post-mortem iris images, (c) development of human-interpretable features that support human examiners in post-mortem iris image matching.
