A cancelable biometric scheme called correlation-invariant random filtering (CIRF) is known as a promising template protection scheme. This scheme transforms a biometric feature represented as an image via the 2D number theoretic transform (NTT) and random filtering. CIRF has perfect secrecy in that the transformed feature leaks no information about the original feature. However, CIRF cannot be...

Four fungal 18S rDNA and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primer pairs were tested for their specificity towards target fungal DNA in soil DNA extracts, and their ability to assess the diversity of fungal communities in a natural grassland soil was compared. Amplified PCR products were cloned, and approximately 50 clones from each library were sequenced. Phyloge...
