Abstract

Contact lens detection in the eye is a significant task to improve the reliability of iris recognition systems. A contact lens overlays the iris region and prevents the iris sensor from capturing the normal iris region. In this paper, we present a novel scheme for detection to detecting a contact lens using Deep Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The proposed CNN architecture ContlensNet is structured to have fifteen layers and configured for the three-class detection problem with the following classes: images with textured (or colored) contact lens, soft (or transparent) contact lens, and no contact lens. The proposed ContlensNet is trained using numerous iris image patches and the problem of overfitting the network is addressed by using the dropout regularization method. Extensive experiments are carried out on two publicly available large-scale databases, namely: IIIT-Delhi Contact lens iris database (IIITD) and Notre Dame cosmetic contact lens database 2013 (ND) that are comprised of contact lens iris samples captured using four different sensors. The obtained results have demonstrated the improved performance of the proposed scheme with an average performance improvement of more than 10% in Correct Classification Rate (CCR%) when compared with eight different state-of-the-art contact lens detection systems.
