Segmentation is one of the first and most integral pre-processing steps for any Fingerprint Recognition System. It is used to identify the region of interest within an image. Perf...
This paper describes an improved thinning algorithm for binary images. We improve thinning algorithm from the fundamental properties such as connectivity, onepixel width, robust t...
An algorithm for finding small-weight words in large linear codes is developed and a precise analysis of its complexity is given. It is in particular able to decode random [512,256...
This paper presents a novel vector quantizer (VQ) design algorithm for a burst error channel (BEC). The algorithm minimizes the average distortion when the BEC is in normal state o...
Motivated by the method for the reconstruction of 3D objects from a set of parallel cross sections, based on the binary operation between 2D sets termed “metric average”, we de...
