Directional antennas in ad hoc networks offer many benefits compared with classical omnidirectional antennas. The most important include significant increase of spatial reuse, cov...
In this paper, we propose to model the blended search problem by assuming conditional dependencies among queries, VSEs and search results. The probability distributions of this mo...
—Biometric authentication is emerging as the promising solution to conventional cryptography based authentication technologies. However, protecting users’ biometric templates s...
Abstract. State-of-the-art palmprint recognition algorithms achieve high accuracy based on component based texture analysis. However, they are still sensitive to local variations o...
