Off-Line Handwritten Signature Identification Using Rotated Complex Wavelet Filters

In this paper, a new method for handwritten signature identification based on rotated complex wavelet filters is proposed. We have proposed to use the rotated complex wavelet filters (RCWF) and dual tree complex wavelet transform(DTCWT) together to derive signature feature extraction, which captures information in twelve different directions. In identification phase, Canberra distance measure i...

Rotated Canonical Correlation Analysis for Multilingual Corpora

This paper aims at proposing the joint use of Canonical Correlation Analysis and Procrustes Rotations (RCA), when we deal with a text and its translation into another language. The basic idea is representing words in the two different natural languages on a common reference space. The main characteristic of this space is to be language independent, although Procrustes Rotation is performed tran...

On The Factor Structure invariance of the PhD UEE Using Multigroup Confirmatory Factor Analysis

The aim of the current study was twofold: (1) to validate the internal structure of the general English (GE) section of the university entrance examination for Ph.D applicants into the English programs at state universities in Iran (Ph.D. UEE), and (2) to examine the factor structure invariance of the Ph.D. UEE across two proficiency levels. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to analyz...

Testing for Heterogeneous Factor Loadings Using Mixtures of Confirmatory Factor Analysis Models

The current study assessed the viability of mixture confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) for measurement invariance testing by evaluating the ability of mixture CFA models to identify differences in factor loadings across populations with identical mean structures. Using simulated data from a model with known parameters, convergence rates, parameter recovery, and the power of the likelihood-ratio...
