4. Experimental Results<br />
To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, we applied it to the widely<br />
used database named CASIA iris database. 1 The database includes 2255 iris images<br />
from 306 different eyes (hence, 306 different classes). The captured iris images are<br />
8-bit gray images with a resolution of 320 × 280.<br />
4.1. Performance of the proposed method<br />
For each iris class, we choose three samples taken at the first session for training and<br />
all samples captured at the second and third sessions serve as test samples. Therefore,<br />
there are 918 images for training and 1337 images for testing. Figure 13(a)<br />
describes variations of the correct recognition rate (CRR) with changes of dimensionality<br />
of the reduced feature vector using the LDA. From this figure, we can see<br />
that with increasing dimensionality of the reduced feature vector, the recognition<br />
rate also increases rapidly. However, when the dimensionality of the reduced feature
