Abstract: An approach for an iris liveness detection is provided. A plurality of image pairs is acquired using one or more image sensors of a mobile device. A particular image pair is selected from the plurality of image pairs, and a hyperspectral image is generated for the particular image pair. Based on, at least in part, the hyperspectral image, a particular feature vector for the eye-iris region depicted in the particular image pair is generated, and one or more trained model feature vectors generated for facial features of a particular user of the device are retrieved. Based on, at least in part, the particular feature vector and the one or more trained model feature vectors, a distance metric is determined and compared with a threshold. If the distance metric exceeds the threshold, then a first message indicating that the plurality of image pairs fails to depict the particular user is generated.
