Iris recognition uses a unique iris pattern of user to identify person. In order to enhance the performance of iris recognition, it is reported that the diameter of iris region should be greater than 200 pixels in the captured iris image. So, the previous iris system used zoom lens camera, which can increase the size and cost of system. To overcome these problems, we propose a new method of enhancing the accuracy of iris recognition on low-resolution iris images which are captured without a zoom lens. This research is novel in the following two ways compared to previous works. First, this research is the first one to analyze the performance degradation of iris recognition according to the decrease of the image resolution by excluding other factors such as image blurring and the occlusion of eyelid and eyelash. Second, in order to restore a high-resolution iris image from single low-resolution one, we propose a new method based on multiple multi-layered perceptrons (MLPs) which are trained according to the edge direction of iris patterns. From that, the accuracy of iris recognition with the restored images was much enhanced. Experimental results showed that when the iris images down-sampled by 6% compared to the original image were restored into the high resolution ones by using the proposed method, the EER of iris recognition was reduced as much as 0.133% (1.485% - 1.352%) in comparison with that by using bi-linear interpolation

본 연구에서는 할부금융시장에서의 고객신용예측을 위한 모형으로 여러 가지 인공신경망(Neural Network) 모형들을 유전자 알고리즘(Genetic Algorithm)을 이용하여 통합한 신용예측모형을 제안한다. 10개의 학습된 인공신경망 모형들을 유전자알고리즘을 이용하여 종류별로 통합하여 MLP(Multi-Layered Perceptrons), Linear, RBF(Radial Basis Function) 세 가지의 대표모델을 얻고 이를 다시 하나의 인공신경망 모델로 통합하였다. 이를 통합되기 이전의 각각의 인공신경망 모형들과 성능을 비교, 분석하여 본 연구에서 제안한 통합모형의 유효성과 통합방법의 타당성을 제시하였다.
