The document describes a multimodal biometric identification system based on iris and fingerprint recognition. It discusses the individual steps of iris and fingerprint recognition including segmentation, feature extraction, and matching. For fingerprint recognition, minutiae points are extracted and matched. For iris recognition, the iris region is segmented from an eye image and normalized before feature extraction. The multimodal system fuses the matching scores from the individual iris and fingerprint recognition at the matching level to improve accuracy by reducing false acceptance and rejection rates compared to unimodal systems. Experimental results on standard databases show the proposed multimodal approach achieves better performance than unimodal biometrics.
