Ear recognition using local binary patterns: A comparative experimental study
作者：
Highlights：
• A comparative study of ear recognition using local binary patterns variants is done.
• A new texture operator is proposed and used as an ear feature descriptor.
• Detailed analysis on Identification and verification is conducted separately.
• An approximated recognition rate of 99% is achieved by some texture descriptors.
• The study has significant insights and can benefit researchers in future works.
