Abstract--We address the problem of computing a local orientation map in a digital image. We show that standard image gray level quantization causes a strong bias in the repartitio...
This paper proposes a new method for personal identification based on iris recognition. The method consists of three major components: image preprocessing, feature extraction and ...
We present an efficient authenticated and fault-tolerant protocol (AFTD) for tree-based key agreement. Our approach is driven by the insight that when a Diffie-Hellman blinded key ...
This article introduces the concept of sensing dictionaries. It presents an alteration of greedy algorithms like thresholding or (Orthogonal) Matching Pursuit which improves their...
Abstract. This paper presents an approach on high-level feature detection using a region thesaurus. MPEG-7 features are locally extracted from segmented regions and for a large set...
