This paper demonstrates that personal identity authentication through comparison of high level features of iris is very effective. The success of a biometric recognition system depends heavily on its feature representation model for biometric patterns. Accomplishing sensitivity to inter-class differences and at the same time robustness against intra-class variations is very difficult. Many biom...

Fine-Grained Visual Classification (FGVC) datasets contain small sample sizes, along with significant intra-class variation and interclass similarity. While prior work has addressed intra-class variation using localization and segmentation techniques, inter-class similarity may also affect feature learning and reduce classification performance. In this work, we address this problem using a nove...

A novel Object-Oriented class testing approach, proposed in this paper, combines functional with structural testing techniques. Based on state-based testing, test cases generated from the MACT (Method for Automatic Class Testing) tool can be used to execute functional testing. The definition-use information of data members, occur in public member functions of a class under test, is generated fr...

The dynamics of a general nonlinear Leslie matrix model for a semelparous population is investigated. We are especially concerned with the attractivity of the single-class state, in which all but one cohort (or year-class) are missing. Our result shows that the single-class state is attractive if inter-class competition is severe. Conversely, if intra-class competition is severe, the single-cla...

PURPOSE To describe the inter- and intra-operator reliability of segmentations of female pelvic floor structures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three segmentation specialists were asked to segment out the female pelvic structures in 20 MR datasets on three separate occasions. The STAPLE algorithm was used to compute inter- and intra-segmenter agreement of each organ in each dataset. STAPLE computed t...

Feature selection for face representation is one of the central issues for any face recognition system. Finding a lower dimensional feature space with enhanced discriminating power is one of the important tasks. The traditional subspace methods represent each face image as a point in the disciminant subspace that is shared by all faces of different subject (classes). Such type of representation...

Introduction: The aim of this study is to provide a quantitative scoring system to assess sonographer performance by reviewing images from the fetal morphology examination. Methods: Ten ultrasound images from patients at 18-22 weeks gestation were assessed and scored for quality according to predefined criteria. One hundred normal cases were randomly selected and 10 images from each case were a...

The purpose of this study was to quantify the impact of oral screen (OS) application on intra-oral pressure characteristics in three malocclusion groups. Fifty-six randomly recruited participants (26 males and 30 females) who met the inclusion criteria of either an Angle Class I occlusal relationships or Angle Class II1 or II2 malocclusions, were assigned by dentition to group I (n = 31), group...

In this paper we introduce the concept of ideal elements in poe-AG-groupoid and give some characterizations and properties of their ideal elements. So we consider some results concerning ideals in poe-semigroups and investigate them in poe-AG-groupoids. Also, the class of ideal elements of poe-AG-groupoids are studied, certain intrinsic and basic properties of poe-AG-groupoids including: ideal,...
