| Summary: | Summary: We propose a two-stage deep residual attention generative adversarial network (TSDRA-GAN) for inpainting iris textures obscured by eyelids. This two-stage generation approach ensures that the semantic and texture information of the generated images is preserved. In the second stage of the fine network, a modified residual block (MRB) is used to further extract features and mitigate the performance degradation caused by the deepening of the network, thus following the concept of using a residual structure as a component of the encoder. In addition, for the skip connection part of this phase, we propose a dual-attention computing connection (DACC) to computationally fuse the features of the encoder and decoder in both directions to achieve more effective information fusion for iris inpainting tasks. Under completely fair and equal experimental conditions, it is shown that the method presented in this paper can effectively restore original iris images and improve recognition accuracy.
