An Innovative Possibilistic Fingerprint Quality Assessment (PFQA) Filter to Improve the Recognition Rate of a Level-2 AFIS [PDF]

Entropy, 2023
In this paper, we propose an innovative approach to improve the performance of an Automatic Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS). The method is based on the design of a Possibilistic Fingerprint Quality Assessment (PFQA) filter where ground truths of

Toward better AFIS practice and process in the forensic fingerprint environment

Forensic Science International: Synergy, 2023
Automated Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS) are used in forensic operational environments worldwide. Traditionally, these systems are search systems only and have limited workflow to support forensic processes in recommended best-practice ...

Cotton Fiber Micronaire and Relations to Fiber HVI and AFIS Qualities Between Deltapine^® and PhytoGen Upland Varieties [PDF]

Fibers
Cotton micronaire (MIC) is an essential fiber quality index that characterizes both fiber maturity and fineness components. This study compared how MIC affects the fiber high volume instrument (HVI) and advanced fiber information system (AFIS) qualities ...

Genome-wide association studies of bundle and single fiber length traits reveal the genetic basis of within-sample variation in upland cotton fiber length [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science
Within-sample variation in cotton fiber length is a major factor influencing the production and quality of yarns. The textile industry has been searching for approaches of improving the long fiber fraction and minimizing the short fiber fraction within a

Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy and Simple Algorithm Analysis for Rapid and Non-Destructive Assessment of Cotton Fiber Maturity and Crystallinity for Plant Mapping [PDF]

Sensors
Information on boll distribution within a cotton plant is critical to evaluate the adaptation and response of cotton plants to environmental and biotic stress in cotton production. Cotton researchers have applied available conventional fiber measurements,

A novel analytical approach to design horizontal well completion using ICDs to eliminate heel-toe effect [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Nowadays, horizontal wells are one of the most common methods in the development of oil and gas fields. But Heel-Toe Effect phenomenon and non-uniform production influx along the well have caused early unwanted fluid production and reduced the ...
