First part of this book presents advances of Dezert-Smarandache Theory (DSmT) which is becoming one of the most comprehensive and flexible fusion theory based on belief functions. It can work in all fusion spaces: power set, hyper-power set, and super-power set, and has various fusion and conditioning rules that can be applied depending on each application. Some new generalized rules are introduced in this volume with codes for implementing some of them. For the qualitative fusion, the DSm Field and Linear Algebra of Refined Labels (FLARL) is proposed which can convert any numerical fusion rule to a qualitative fusion rule. When one needs to work on a refined frame of discernment, the refinement is done using Smarandache¿s algebraic codification. New interpretations and implementations of the fusion rules based on sampling techniques and referee functions are proposed, including the probabilistic proportional conflict redistribution rule. A new probabilistic transformation of mass of belief is also presented which outperforms the classical pignistic transformation in term of probabilistic information content. The second part of the book presents applications of DSmT in target tracking, in satellite image fusion, in snow-avalanche risk assessment, in multi-biometric match score fusion, in assessment of an attribute information retrieved based on the sensor data or human originated information, in sensor management, in automatic goal allocation for a planetary rover, in computer-aided medical diagnosis, in multiple camera fusion for tracking objects on ground plane, in object identification, in fusion of Electronic Support Measures allegiance report, in map regenerating forest stands, etc.

Book excerpt: Biometrics is used to uniquely identify a person‘s individual based on physical and behavioural characteristics. Unimodal biometric system contains various problems such as degree of freedom, spoof attacks, non-universality, noisy data and error rates. Multimodal biometrics is introduced to overcome the limitations in Unimodal biometrics.

Book excerpt: This paper formulates an evidence-theoretic multimodal unification approach using belief functions that takes into account the variability in biometric image characteristics. While processing non-ideal images the variation in the quality of features at different levels of abstraction may cause individual classifiers to generate conflicting genuine-impostor decisions. Existing fusion approaches are non-adaptive and do not always guarantee optimum performance improvements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biometric Systems provides practitioners with an overview of the principles and methods needed to build reliable biometric systems. It covers three main topics: key biometric technologies, design and management issues, and the performance evaluation of biometric systems for personal verification/identification. The four most widely used technologies are focused on - speech, fingerprint, iris and face recognition. Key features include: in-depth coverage of the technical and practical obstacles which are often neglected by application developers and system integrators and which result in shortfalls between expected and actual performance; and protocols and benchmarks which will allow developers to compare performance and track system improvements.

Book excerpt: An insight into the biometric industry and the steps for successful deployment Biometrics technologies verify identity through characteristics such as fingerprints, voices, and faces. By providing increased security and convenience, biometrics have begun to see widespread deployment in network, e-commerce, and retail applications. This book provides in-depth analysis of biometrics as a solution for authenticating employees and customers. Leading authority, Samir Nanavati explores privacy, security, accuracy, system design, user perceptions, and lessons learned in biometric deployments. He also assesses the real-world strengths and weaknesses of leading biometric technologies: finger-scan, iris-scan, facial-scan, voice-scan, and signature-scan. This accessible book is a necessary step in understanding and implementing biometrics. Demystifies the complex world of optical networks for IT and business managers Over the past few years, the cost of fiber optic networking has decreased, making it the best solution for providing virtually unlimited bandwidth for corporate LANs and WANs, metropolitan networks, Internet access, and broadband to the home. The only strategic book on optical networking technologies written from a real-world business perspective, Optical Networking demystifies complex fiber technologies for managers, and details the practical business benefits an optical network can offer. Debra Cameron explores established and emerging markets for optical networks as well as the enabling technologies, applications, network architectures, key deployment issues, and cost considerations. She also provides in-depth case studies of optical networks now in use in the United States and abroad.

Book excerpt: Multibiometric systems are gaining popularity because they are able to overcome limitations such as non-universality, noisy sensor data and susceptibility to spoof attacks common in unibiometric systems. We address two critical issues in the design of a multibiometric system, namely, fusion methodology and template security. We propose a fusion methodology based on the Neyman-Pearson theorem for combination of match scores provided by multiple biometric matchers. The likelihood ratio (LR) test used in the Neyman-Pearson theorem directly maximizes the genuine accept rate (GAR) at any desired false accept rate (FAR). We extend the likelihood ratio based fusion scheme to incorporate the quality of the biometric samples. The LR framework can be used for designing sequential multibiometric systems by constructing a binary decision tree classifier based on the marginal likelihood ratios of the individual matchers. The use of image quality information further improves the GAR to 90% at a FAR of 0:001%. Next, we show that the proposed likelihood ratio based fusion framework is also applicable to a multibiometric system operating in the identification mode. We investigate rank level fusion strategies and propose a hybrid scheme that utilizes both ranks and scores to perform fusion in the identification scenario. Fusion of multiple biometric sources requires storage of multiple templates for the same user corresponding to the individual biometric sources. Template security is an important issue because stolen biometric templates cannot be revoked. We propose a scheme for securing multibiometric templates as a single entity using the fuzzy vault framework. We have developed fully automatic implementa- tions of a ngerprint-based fuzzy vault that secures minutiae templates and an iris cryptosystem that secures iris code templates. We also demonstrate that a multibiometric vault achieves better recognition performance and higher security compared to a unibiometric vault.
