This paper presents the segmentation algorithm used for

localization of iris for the development of robust iris

recognition algorithms for biometric process. Iris localization

plays a vital importance in iris identification. The method

determines an automated threshold for binarising and

determines the pupil center based on a histogram of gray

scale image. We present a detail comparison of several

segmentation algorithms used in the current iris recognition

systems-This paper presents the segmentation algorithm used for
