Abstract:

With the onset of COVID-19 pandemic, wearing of face mask became essential and the face occlusion created by the masks deteriorated the performance of the face biometric systems. In this situation, the use of periocular region (region around the eye) as a biometric trait for authentication is gaining attention since it is the most visible region when masks are used. One important issue in periocular biometrics is the identification of an optimal size periocular ROI which contains enough features for authentication. The state of the art ROI extraction algorithms use fixed size rectangular ROI calculated based on some reference points like center of the iris or centre of the eye without considering the shape of the periocular region of an individual. This paper proposes a novel approach to extract optimum size periocular ROIs of two different shapes (polygon and rectangular) by using five reference points (inner and outer canthus points, two end points and the midpoint of eyebrow) in order to accommodate the complete shape of the periocular region of an individual. The performance analysis on UBIPr database using CNN models validated the fact that both the proposed ROIs contain enough information to identify a person wearing face mask.
