About the Author
Dr John Daugman is a member of the Faculty at Cambridge University, where he teaches and
conducts research in Computer Vision, Information Theory, Artificial Intelligence,
and Neural Computing. Born in 1954, he received all of his degrees at Harvard
University, USA, where he was also appointed a member of the Faculty in
1985. The US National Science Foundation awarded him the Presidential Young
Investigator Award in 1988 for his work in computer vision and computational
neuroscience. In 1989 he became the inaugural holder of the Toshiba Endowed
Chair in Information Systems at the Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan,
and he has also held a visiting appointment at the Ludwig-Maximillians-Universitat
in Munich, Germany. His scientific responsibilities include Editorships
of four international journals: Neural Networks; IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence;
Cognitive Brain Research; and Network Computation in Neural Systems. Dr Daugman is the inventor of the iris analysis process described in this
paper, for which he received US Patent 5,291,560 in 1994.
