ABSTRACT Researchers have developed finite element (FE) models from preoperative medical images to simulate intraoperative breast compression. Applications for these FE models include mammography, non-rigid image registration, and MRI guided biopsy. Efficient…

ABSTRACT In this work, we utilized Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) techniques to develop predictive models for inhibitors of the HIV-1 enzymes Integrase, HIV-Protease, and Reverse Transcriptase. Each predictive model was composed of quanti…
ABSTRACT Modeling unsteady thermal–viscous flows inside/around complicated geometries containing multiphase sub-systems (fluid–porous–solid) and multi-physics phenomena (diffusion; forced/free/mixed convection; time variations of velocity, temperatures …
ABSTRACT Cancelable biometrics is a technique used to enhance security and user privacy. These schemes are employed to generate multiple revocable data from the original biometric template. In this paper, the security of binary template transformations is eva…

ABSTRACT The electrocardiograph (ECG) contains cardiac features unique to each individual. By analyzing ECG, it should therefore be possible not only to detect the rate and consistency of heartbeats but to also extract other signal features in order to identi…
ABSTRACT In this work, we deal with contactless fingerprint biometrics. More specifically, we are interested in solving the problem of registration by taking into consideration some constraints such as finger rotation and translation. In the proposed method, …
