Digital fingerprinting is a technology for tracing the distribution of multimedia content and protecting them from unauthorized redistribution. Collusion attack is a cost effective attack against digital fingerprinting where several copies with the same content but different fingerprints are combined to remove the original fingerprints. In this paper, we investigate average and nonlinear collus...

Audio fingerprinting is the process to obtain a compact content-based signature that summarizes the essence of an audio clip. In general, existing audio fingerprinting schemes based on wavelet transforms are not robust against large linear speed changes. The authors present a novel framework for contentbased audio retrieval based on the audio fingerprinting scheme that is robust against large l...

An audio fingerprint is a compact content-based signature that summarizes an audio recording. Audio Fingerprinting technologies have attracted attention since they allow the identification of audio independently of its format and without the need of meta-data or watermark embedding. Other uses of fingerprinting include: integrity verification, watermark support and content-based audio retrieval...

In rheumatic diseases, autoantibody-producing cells of interest are often hidden in a polyclonal B-lymphocyte population. Immunoglobulin gene fingerprinting is a useful approach to screen for expanding clones and to detect recirculation between different locations. The gene fingerprinting approach and the Southern blot technique have been amalgamated, using electrophoretic transfer of a PCR pro...

Web-based device fingerprinting is the process of collecting information through the browser that is sufficient to perform device identification. Fonts, screen dimensions, language, timezone, plugins and user agent string are examples of properties that, if combined, may serve as globally unique identifier. Indeed, a 2010 study by Peter Eckersley (EFF) based on data collected from about half a ...

The rapid growth of digital multimedia technologies brings tremendous attention to the field of digital watermarking. One application for digital watermarking is fingerprinting. The owner or the distributor of the multimedia data can insert unique watermarks into copies for different customers or receivers, which will be helpful to identify the source of illegal copies. Fingerprinting can be us...

We compared random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting with cross-absorption agglutination and restriction enzyme analysis for typing bovine leptospires. Using RAPD fingerprinting, we examined a number of Leptospira serovars, namely, hardjo genotypes bovis and prajitno, pomona, balcanica, tarassovi, swajizak, kremastos, australis, and zanoni, which are likely to be isolated from Aus...
