Abstract:
Most of the fingerprint matching techniques require extraction of minutiae that are ridge endings or bifurcations of ridge lines in a fingerprint image. Crucial to this step is either detecting ridges from the gray-level image or binarizing the image and then extracting the minutiae. In this work, we firstly exploit the property of almost equal width of ridges and valleys for binarization. Computing the width of arbitrary shapes is a nontrivial task. So, we estimate the width using Euclidean distance transform (EDT) and provide a near-linear time algorithm for binarization. Secondly, instead o

Abstract:
True minutiae extraction in fingerprint image is critical to the performance of an automated identification system. Generally, a set of endings and bifurcations (both called feature points) can be obtained by the thinning image from which the true minutiae of the fingerprint are extracted by using the rules based on the structure of ridges. However, considering some false and true minutiae have similar ridge structures in the thinning image, in a lot of cases, we have to explore their difference in the binary image or the original gray image.

Kilia medieval fortress, now non-existant, consisted of a stone citadel attributed to the Genoese, an outer belt of fortifications, built under Stephen the Great, and an Ottoman bastion fortress, designed and built in the end of the XVIII century. This article examines two documents referring to the Kilia fortress, discovered by the author in the Russian State Military-Historical Archive of Moscow. The first document is an undated plan for a Turkish bastion fortress developed, most likely, by the French engineer François Kauffer. The figure shows the Ottoman-Turkish names of bastions (Agha Bas

Abstract: In the Field of Software Engineering, Gaming is the fastest growing field and even more rapidly growing sector of game development the coming years are difficult to predict. Survival horror video games (SHVGs) are among the fastest-growing genres for independent video game developers. With horrific cinematic elements and fear-inducing characteristics, survival horror video games create a terrifying experience for users within a virtual environment. There are various game engines where we are able to create such amazing games such as in Unity3d, Unreal Engine, Game Maker, Godot, and m

Abstract:
The rifting zone of Bransfield Strait, Antarctica, is tectonically and geologically unique. It is a back-arc basin that was opened by extensional forces associated to roll-back subduction after cessation of spreading activity of the Phoenix Ridge, and the transtension of the westward ending of Scotia-Antarctica Plate boundary. The Bransfield Rift/Ridge is still active generating volcanism or magma rise to force hydrothermal activity. During the ANT-XXV/4 cruise onboard R/V “Polarstern”, standard CTD and beam transmission measurements were done to determine temperature anomaly and turbidity. Wa

Abstract:
Ride-sharing (RS) plays an important role in saving energy and alleviating traffic pressure. The vehicles in the demand-responsive feeder transit services (DRT) are generally not ride-sharing cars. Therefore, we proposed an optimal DRT model based on the ride-sharing car, which aimed at assigning a set of vehicles, starting at origin locations and ending at destination locations with their service time windows, to transport passengers of all demand points to the transportation hub (i.e., railway, metro, airport, etc.). The proposed model offered an integrated operation of pedestrian guidance (

During the clinical visit, an anovulvar distance shorter than normal was observed; moreover, vulvar lips were dorsally fused except for the lower neckline, showing a blind ending from which a penis-like structure protruded. The ultrasound examination revealed the presence of a cervix and corpus of a uterus, hypoplastic uterine horns, and small gonads with an echogenicity similar to a testis.
