Summary: Iris segmentation algorithms based on deep learning lack generalization ability and cannot accurately segment iris images without corresponding ground truth data. Normalization is required to reduce the influence of pupil deformation, but it introduces noise in nonconnected iris regions and decreases recognition rate. This paper proposes an end-to-end unified framework based on deep learning that achieves improved accuracy in iris segmentation and recognition without normalization. The framework includes MADNet for iris segmentation and DSANet for iris recognition, and experiments show that it outperforms other methods on low-quality iris images without ground truth data.

Summary: Many real-world complex optimization problems can easily get stuck in local optima and fail to find the optimal solution, so new techniques and methods are needed to address these challenges. Metaheuristic algorithms, such as the Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA), have gained attention due to their efficiency and simplicity. However, SCA, like other metaheuristic algorithms, has slow convergence and may struggle in sub-optimal regions. This study proposes an enhanced version of SCA called RDSCA that utilizes random spare/replacement and double adaptive weight techniques, resulting in competitive results compared to other metaheuristic algorithms.
