Abstract

There are some benefits in using periocular biometric traits for individual identification. This work describes the use of convolutional neural network Neocognitron, in this novel application, in individual recognition using periocular region images. Besides, it is used the competitive learning using the extreme points of lines detected in the preprocessing of the input images as winner positions. It was used Carnegie Mellon University - Pose, Illumination, and Expression Database (CMU-PIE), with 41,368 images of 68 persons. From these images, 57 \(\times \) 57 periocular images were obtained as training and test samples. The experiments indicate results in the Kappa index of 0.89, for periocular images, and 0.91 for complete face images.
