Palmprint recognition is a new biometrics system based on physiological characteristics of the palmprint, which includes rich, stable, and unique features such as lines, points, and texture. Texture is one of the most important features extracted from low resolution images. In this paper, a new local descriptor, Local Composition Derivative Pattern (LCDP) is proposed to extract smartly stronger...

The paper describes a system for controlling a virtual mouse using the mioelectric signal from voluntary contractions of the masseter and temporal muscles. The average energy of each of the data packets is compared to a threshold, established by a process of personal calibration executed before starting the system. The threshold energy value was computed using two different adaptive techniques:...
