In one of the earliest publications on fingerprinting, Wagner defines “perfect fingerprinting” to include schemes such that any alteration to the marked object that makes the fingerprint unrecognizable must necessarily make the object unusable. Several modern fingerprinting schemes are based on the assumption that perfect fingerprinting of digital information is possible. This paper explores th...

An increasingly important requirement for many novel applications is sensing the positions of people, equipment, animals, etc. GPS technology has proven itself as a successfull technology for positioning in outdoor environments but indoor no technology has yet gained a similar wide-scale adoption. A promising indoor positioning technique is radio-based location fingerprinting, having the major ...

introduction: cryptosporidium is an apicomplexa parasite that infects humans and a wide range of domestic and wild animals. however, the sub-genotypes of the species infecting animals in iran are unclear. the aim of the present study isto identify dna fingerprinting of bovine cryptosporidium in qazvin province using sequences of gp60 gene.   materials and methods : in this study we investigated...

Fingerprinting schemes are technical means to discourage people from illegally redistributing the digital data they have legally purchased. These schemes enable the original merchant to identify the original buyer of the digital data. In so-called asymmetric fingerprinting schemes the fingerprinted data item is only known to the buyer after a sale and if the merchant finds an illegally redistri...

introduction: recently, the incidence of fungal infections dramatically increased with an appearance of many novel species due to different criteria. therefore, several molecular methods have been established for identification of these agents which cause human and animal disorder based on genomic dna. among these methods, rapd-pcr technique is a powerful discriminative method based on amplifie...

Most Web users are unaware of being identified or followed by web agents which leverage techniques such as browser fingerprinting (or fingerprinting). Data obtained through such fingerprinting techniques can be utilized for various purposes ranging from understanding the types and properties of the user’s browser to learning the user Web experience (e.g., through the browsing history). For ente...

Recent advances in learning Deep Neural Network (DNN) architectures have received a great deal of attention due to their ability to outperform state-of-the-art classifiers across a wide range of applications, with little or no feature engineering. In this paper, we broadly study the applicability of deep learning to website fingerprinting. We show that unsupervised DNNs can be used to extract l...

introduction and aims: h. pylori has been implicated in peptic diseases, some with detrimental consequences such as ulcer or cancer. since considerable genetic heterogeneity has been observed within h. pylori population worldwide, it appears an ideal achievement to recruit pcr-based methods and design genetic markers which recognize isolates from normal and symptomatic individuals. in this stud...

for many years, assessment of olive oil quality and itsauthenticity confimation has been of great importanceto guarantee olive oil safety in compliance with legislations. these include the investigation of olive oil purityand quality by analyzing several parameters such as fattyacid composition, sterols, phenolic compounds, triacylglycerol and etc, through performing conventional andadvanced hy...
