Feature Level Fusion of Face and Fingerprint Biometrics [PDF]
, 2010 The aim of this paper is to study the fusion at feature extraction level for face and fingerprint biometrics. The proposed approach is based on the fusion of the two traits by extracting independent feature pointsets from the two modalities, and making ...

Reading Nietzsche in an Age of Conspiracy Theories
Modern Theology, Volume 42, Issue 2, Page 251-275, April 2026.Abstract This essay considers Friedrich Nietzsche's critique of Christian morality as a template for interpreting the epistemology of modern conspiracy theorists. The first section elucidates Nietzsche's notion of ressentiment as it can be applied to contemporary conspiracism. The effectiveness of this comparative assessment thus raises the question of

Improving Identification by Removing Obstructive Minutiae From Latent Fingerprints
IEEE AccessLatent fingerprint identification is essential in forensic science for linking suspects to crime scenes or, conversely, confirming a person’s innocence. However, latent fingerprints often are partial prints with undesirable characteristics such as

Fingerprint Recognition Using Local Features
Revista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2013 Fingerprint recognition is one of the most popular methods used for identification with greater degree of success. The fingerprint has unique characteristics called minutiae, which are points where a curve track finishes, intersect or branches off ...
