• Abstract: This paper presents a texture aware end-to-end trainable iris recognition system, specifically designed for datasets like iris having limited training data. We build upon our previous stagewise learning framework with certain key optimization and architectural innovations. First, we pretrain a Stage-1 encoder network with an unsupervised autoencoder learning optimized with an additional data relation loss on top of usual reconstruction loss. The data relation loss enables learning better texture representation which is pivotal for a texture rich dataset such as iris. Robustness of Stage-1 feature representation is further enhanced with an auxiliary denoising task. Such pre-training proves beneficial for effectively training deep networks on data constrained iris datasets. Next, in Stage-2 supervised refinement, we design a pairwise learning architecture for an end-to-end trainable iris recognition system. The pairwise learning includes the task of iris matching inside the training pipeline itself and results in significant improvement in recognition performance compared to usual offline matching. We validate our model across three publicly available iris datasets and the proposed model consistently outperforms both traditional and deep learning baselines for both Within-Dataset and Cross-Dataset configurations

  Enhancing images in low-light scenes is a challenging but widely concerned task in the computer vision. Main obstacle lies in the modeling conundrum from distribution discrepancy across different scenes. We introduce the bilevel paradigm to model the above latent correspondence. A bilevel learning framework is constructed to endow the scene-irrelevant generality of the encoder towards diverse scenes.
