Automatic handedness detection from off-line handwriting
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In forensics, the handedness detection or the classification of writers into left or right-handed helps investigators focusing more on a certain category of suspects. However, only a few studies have been carried out in ...
ICDAR 2013 competition on handwriting stroke recovery from offline data
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Stroke recovery from offline handwriting is a very interesting research field. However, no standard benchmark is available for researchers in this field. The aim of this competition is to gather researchers and compare ...
An improved palmprint recognition system using iris features
(
Springer
, 2013 , Article)
This paper presents a bimodal biometric recognition system based on the extracted features of the human palmprint and iris using a new graph-based approach termed Fisher locality preserving projections (FLPP). This new ...
Systolic architecture for hardware implementation of two-dimensional non-separable filter-bank
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we present an efficient poly-phase decomposition scheme for implementation of 2-D non-separable filter bank. Poly-phase decomposition scheme offers multiplexing of filter bank computations or/and reduce the ...

(
Springer Verlag
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Qatar has become an active research producer of data, publications, and other scholarly works. We studied the evolving scholarly activities and needs of researchers in this relatively new research environment, and compared ...
Protecting private cloud located within public cloud
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Many studies use cryptographic technologies to protect sensitive data in public cloud. However, these approaches may introduce large overheads. Recently, hybrid cloud started to gain a lot of attentions. A hybrid cloud ...
Battery status-aware authentication scheme for V2G networks in smart grid
(2013 , Article)
Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) is emerging as an attractive paradigm in smart grid, and provides power and information services by periodically collecting power status of battery vehicles (BVs). During a BV's interaction with power ...
Incentive scheduler algorithm for cooperation and coverage extension in wireless networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Article)
In this paper, we focus on wireless coverage extension and nodes' cooperation. We propose a new protocol based on an incentive approach and a scheduling algorithm to reward cooperative nodes. The cost of cooperation can ...
