Here we study the complexity of string problems as a function of the size of a program that generates input. We consider straight-line programs (SLP), since all algorithms on SLP-generated strings could be applied to processing…

We introduce a new distance-preserving compact representation of multi-dimensional point-sets. Given $n$ points in a $d$-dimensional space where each coordinate is represented using $B$ bits (i.e., $dB$ bits per point), it produces a…

Superpixels have long been used in image simplification to enable more efficient data processing and storage. However, despite their computational potential, their irregular spatial distribution has often forced deep learning approaches to…

This study aims to publish a novel similarity metric to increase the speed of comparison operations. Also the new metric is suitable for distance-based operations among strings. Most of the simple calculation methods, such as string length…

Learning meaningful representations from medical time series (MedTS) such as ECG or EEG signals is a critical challenge. These signals are often high-dimensional, variable-length and rife with noise. Existing self-supervised approaches,…

Data-driven approaches are particularly useful for computational materials discovery and design as they can be used for rapidly screening over a very large number of materials, thus suggesting lead candidates for further in-depth…

This paper presents a multimodal biometric system of fingerprint and ear biometrics. Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) descriptor based feature sets extracted from fingerprint and ear are fused. The fused set is encoded by K-medoids…

While fingerprinting localization is favored for its effectiveness, it is hindered by high data acquisition costs and the inaccuracy of static database-based estimates. Addressing these issues, this letter presents an innovative indoor…

Ensuring data ownership and traceability of unauthorised redistribution are central to safeguarding intellectual property in shared data environments. Data fingerprinting addresses these challenges by embedding recipient-specific marks into…

This paper presents an effective fingerprint classification method designed based on a hierarchical agglomerative clustering technique. The performance of the technique was evaluated in terms of several real-life datasets and a significant…

This paper presents a simple yet very effective data-driven approach to fuse both low-level and high-level local geometric features for 3D rigid data matching. It is a common practice to generate distinctive geometric descriptors by fusing…

Fault-tolerant quantum computing requires classical hardware to perform the decoding necessary for error correction. The Union-Find decoder is one of the best candidates for this. It has remarkably organic characteristics, involving the…

Structural fingerprints and pharmacophore modeling are methodologies that have been used for at least two decades in various fields of cheminformatics: from similarity searching to machine learning (ML). Advances in silico techniques…

In this paper, we first propose a new iterative algorithm, called the K-sets+ algorithm for clustering data points in a semi-metric space, where the distance measure does not necessarily satisfy the triangular inequality. We show that the…

Fingerprints feature a ridge pattern with moderately varying ridge frequency (RF), following an orientation field (OF), which usually features some singularities. Additionally at some points, called minutiae, ridge lines end or fork and…

In this paper, we propose a new framework for segmenting feature-based moving objects under affine subspace model. Since the feature trajectories in practice are high-dimensional and contain a lot of noise, we firstly apply the sparse PCA…

Point constellation recognition is a common problem with many pattern matching applications. Whilst useful in many contexts, this work is mainly motivated by fingerprint matching. Fingerprints are traditionally modelled as constellations of…

The goal of ordinal embedding is to represent items as points in a low-dimensional Euclidean space given a set of constraints in the form of distance comparisons like "item $i$ is closer to item $j$ than item $k$". Ordinal constraints like…

Structural optimization has been a crucial component in computational materials research, and structure predictions have relied heavily on this technique in particular. In this study, we introduce a novel method that enhances the efficiency…

The delay-based fingerprint embedding was recently proposed to support more users in secure media distribution scenario. In this embedding scheme, some users are assigned the same fingerprint code with only different embedding delay. The…
