In order to improve the success ratio and velocity of iris location
an iris location algorithm based on morphological operators was developed. The iris location algorithm was realized through regarding the eyelashes as slits of iris image and applying the dilation operator of the morphology to fill up
and then the disturbance was removed. The Hough transform was used to get the parameter of iris boundary. So
the proposed iris location algorithm can reduce the errors caused by eyelashes and eyelids
and improve the speed of location process. Experiment validation has been carried out with iris image database. It shows that the improved algorithm can locate the iris more effective and quickly. Compared with the traditional algorithm of Daugman
and the location time is only 17% of Daugman's algorithm and the success ratio can be increased by 3.7%.
