The lossless entropy coding used in many image coding schemes often is overlooked as most research is based around the lossy stages of image compression. This paper examines the r...
This paper details a fully automated face authentication system using low-cost near infrared imaging. The image normalization step consists of eye center localization, scale corre...
One of the major problem in face authentication systems is to deal with variations in illumination. In a realistic scenario, it is very likely that the lighting conditions of the ...
Currently statistical and artificial neural network methods dominate in data mining applications. Alternative relational (symbolic) data mining methods have shown their effectivene...
In this paper, a new block-based image-dependent watermarking technique is proposed. The proposed technique utilizes the correlation coefficient statistic to produce a short and un...
