Random distribution of features in iris image texture allows to perform iris-based personal authentication with high confidence. We propose to use the most significant local extremum points of the first two Taylor expansion coefficients as descriptors of the iris texture. A measure of similarity that is robust to moderate inaccuracies in iris segmentation is presented for the proposed features. We provide experimental results of verification quality for four commonly used iris data-sets. Strong and weak aspects of the proposed approach are also discussed.
