Color Iris

Iris recognition has been an interesting subject for many research studies in the last two decades and has raised many challenges for the researchers. One new and interesting challenge in the iris studies is gender recognition using iris images. Gender classification can be applied to reduce processing time of the identification process. On the other hand, it can be used in applications such as access control systems, and gender-based marketing and so on. To the best of our knowledge, only a few numbers of studies are conducted on gender recognition through analysis of iris images.
