Abstract
Ear based biometric identification can be the solution for instance such as surveillance where other biometric traits are simply very hard to access. Although many semi-automatic approaches have been made to detect ear and use it for human recognition purpose, most of them are based on feature extraction or shallow machine learning approaches. Very few approaches those used deep neural network architectures are either having less hidden layers, or a combination of deep neural network and feature extraction classifiers or already trained complex deep convolutional network. In this research approach, a deep but simple raw convolutional neural network have been used to detect ear from an ear and non-ear environment which is the initial part of ear based biometric implication. Data-Augmentation have also used and a comparative analysis have been done for original data set and Augmented dataset. Using this deep but from scratch architecture trained by 792 original images we achieved promising output which show larger data could achieve higher accuracy.
