Dealing with non-linear distortion in fingerprint images is a major difficulty for automated fingerprint verification systems. While this distortion can be a nuisance in minutiae ...
Abstract. This paper studies a risk minimization approach to estimate a transformation model from noisy observations. It is argued that transformation models are a natural candidat...

Abstract. During the last two decades, monads have become an indispensable tool for structuring functional programs with computational effects. In this setting, the mathematical n...
We study the existence of automatic presentations for various algebraic structures. An automatic presentation of a structure is a description of the universe of the structure by a...
A decomposition is described, which parameterizes the geometry and appearance of contours and regions of gray-scale images with the goal of fast categorization. To express the con...
