the current study was designed to estimate the frequency of igf-i gene 1 polymorphism and investigate if their polymorphisms have association with biometric traits in moghani sheep by pcr-sscp method. for this purpose, a number of 100 sheep were randomly chosen from moghani sheep jafarabad, moghan breeding station that located in ardabil state and blood samples were collected from the left jugu...

Iris recognition technologies are deployed in numerous large-scale nation-wide projects in order to provide robust and reliable biometric recognition of individuals. Moreover, the iris has been found to be rather stable over time, i.e. iris biometric reference data provides a strong and permanent link between individuals and their biometric traits. Hence, unprotected storage of (iris) biometric...

Biometrics have long been used as means to recognize people, mainly in terms of their physiological characteristics, for various commercial applications ranging from surveillance and access control against potential impostors to smart interfaces (Qazi (2004)) (Xiao (2005)). These systems require reliable personal recognition schemes to either confirm or determine the identity of an individual r...

All nations needs a democracy and nations in which democracy exists are trying for improvement in voting system. Recent Movement of Egypt and all developed nations having a democracy shows the value of voting. Developing nations like India are spending huge money to improve their whole voting system to provide a better government to their citizens. For good democracy, a voting system should be ...

Author identification, also called authorship attribution, is the task of determining the author of a piece of work. All humans have unique patterns of behavior, much like the uniqueness of biometric data. Therefore, certain characteristics pertaining to language, composition, and writing, such as particular syntactic and structural layout traits, patterns of vocabulary usage, unusual language ...

Biometrics offers natural and scientific solution to key aspects of security management problems. Due to the increased security concerns in the past decade, biometrics has seen enormous growth and has found widespread applications in our everyday life. Widely researched biometrics traits include face, iris, fingerprint, hand geometry, palmprint, voice and signature. Of these, face and hand geom...

Biometric recognition is still a very difficult task in realworld scenarios wherein unforeseen changes in degradations factors like noise, occlusion, blurriness and illumination can drastically affect the extracted features from the biometric signals. Very recently Haar-like rectangular features which have usually been used for object detection were introduced for biometric recognition resultin...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the possible use of biometric testicular traits as selection criteria for young Nellore bulls using Bayesian inference to estimate heritability coefficients and genetic correlations. Multitrait analysis was performed including 17,211 records of scrotal circumference obtained during andrological assessment (SCAND) and 15,313 records of testicular volum...

Biometric identification using palm print is a reliable technology and has various advantages over other biometric traits. In this paper, the feature extraction of palm print is carried out using multi scale wavelet edge detection. The result and performance is compared with conventional edge detection techniques like Sobel and Canny methods. The experiment is carried out on a polyu database an...
