An iris is reliable biometric trait to authenticate a person. In this paper we propose Iris Recognition based on Transformation of Iris Template, AHE, HE and Gabor Wavelet Filter. The iris is extracted and created as iris template using localization and segmentation. The numbers of iris templates are converted into one iris template per person using averaging technique. The Adaptive Histogram Equalization (AHE) is applied on converted iris templates. The Histogram Equalization (HE) is applied on AHE templates and features are extracted using Gabor wavelet filters. The database iris template features are compared with test iris template features using Euclidian Distance (ED) to compute performance parameters. It is observed that the performance of proposed algorithm is better compared to existing algorithms.

Iris biometric trait is used in high security areas to identify a person. In this paper Iris Recognition based on Transformation of Iris Template, AHE, HE and Gabor Wavelet Filter is proposed. The iris template is created using localization and segmentation techniques. The many templates of a person in a database are converted into single person using averaging technique to reduce number of templates per person to increase speed of identification. The AHE and HE are used to enhance quality of iris template. The features are extracted using gabor wavelet filters. The ED is used to compare test and database features to test performance of the proposed algorithm. It is observed that the performance of proposed method is better compared to existing methods.
