In practical biometric verification applications, we expect to observe a large variability of biometric data. Single classifiers have insufficient accuracy in such cases. Fusion of multiple classifiers is proposed to improve accuracy. Typically, classifier decisions are fused using a decision fusion rule. Usually, research is done on finding the best decision fusion rule, given the set of class...

A verifying compiler automatically verifies the correctness of a source program before compiling it. Founded on the definition of the source language and a set of rules (a methodology) for using the language, the program’s correctness criteria and correctness argument are provided in the program text by interface specifications and invariants. This paper describes the program-verifier component...

Circus is a combination of Z and CSP; its chief distinguishing feature is the inclusion of the ideas of the refinement calculus. Our main objective is the definition of refinement methods for concurrent programs. The original semantic model for Circus is Hoare and He’s unifying theories of programming. In this paper, we present an equivalent semantics based on predicate transformers. With this ...

Interface automata provide a formalism capturing the high level interactions between software components. Checking compatibility, and other safety properties, in an automata-based system suffers from the scalability issues inherent in exhaustive techniques such as model checking. This work develops a theoretical framework and automated algorithms for modular verification of interface automata. ...

The verification of behavioral models is an important step before transferring a hardware design to the layout. A popular approach is to use a variety of code coverage measures to evaluate how much of the design has been simulated. Common coverage measures include branch coverage and bit toggle coverage. This paper presents a test pattern generation approach based on controlflow and dataflow an...
