A new method for feature extraction and recognition, namely the fuzzy bidirectional weighted sum criterion (FBWSC) is proposed in this paper. FBWSC defines the row directional fuzzy image optimal image projection matrix. Subsequently, each sample in the original training sample set is transformed using the row directional optimal image projection matrix, and the row directional feature training...

palmprint recognition is a new biometrics system based on physiological characteristics of the palmprint, which includes rich, stable, and unique features such as lines, points, and texture. texture is one of the most important features extracted from low resolution images. in this paper, a new local descriptor, local composition derivative pattern (lcdp) is proposed to extract smartly stronger...

in this paper a novel design of all-optical half-subtractor based on nonlinear directional coupler is proposed. by using four waveguides and appropriately adjusting the refractive indices and selecting the proper length of waveguides, halfsubtractor function can be obtained. the operation of this function is simulated by rsoft cad-layout (beamprop) simulator. the simulation results confirm the ...

in this paper, we give some results on the common fixed point of self-mappings defined on complete $b$-metric spaces. our results generalize kannan and chatterjea fixed point theorems on complete $b$-metric spaces. in particular, we show that two self-mappings satisfying a contraction type inequality have a unique common fixed point. we also give some examples to illustrate the given results.
