Worldcoin, a cryptocurrency company founded by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, introduced its iris recognition reasoning system on its official blog, which uses iris biometrics to verify identity and uniqueness. We illustrate how combining deep learning models for image quality assessment and image understanding with traditional feature extraction techniques enables the system to accurately verify uniqueness on a global scale.

Worldcoin said: "Our work in this area is still ongoing. Currently, the TFH team is working on an end-to-end deep learning model, which may lead to faster and more accurate uniqueness verification. In addition, Worldcoin is constantly Improving its Demonstration Attack Detection (PAD) model for various types of attacks, utilizing new models and sensors for defense."
