In this paper, we present an improved version of MOBIL descriptor [1] (Improved MOments based BInary differences for Local description), which introduces two main contributions. The first one is the use of geometric information for the binary test instead of the classical intensity binary test, to get more precision in the description step. The second one is to attribute two bits for each test, to increase the distinctiveness level. This approach offers high distinctiveness against affine transformations and appearance changes. The experimental evaluation shows that MOBIL achieves a quite good performance in term of low computation complexity and high recognition rate compared to state-of-the-art real-time local descriptors.

Currently, people around the world daily use the Internet to access various services, such as, email and online shopping. However, the behavior-based tracking attacks have posed a considerable threat to users' privacy. Relying on characteristic patterns within the Internet activities, this attack can link a user's multiple sessions which are composed of a period of user's traffic. Once a user's personally identifiable information is disclosed in some session, the attacker can obtain the user's other network activities according to the linked sessions. In this paper, we investigate this behavior-based tracking attack and discuss the possible countermeasures. We preprocess the raw traffic data and then extract features ranging from lower layer network packets to high level application related traffic. Specifically, we focuses on four types of application-level traffic to infer users' habits, including HTTP, IM, Email, and P2P. A Multinomial Naive Bayes Classifier is employed to correlate users' sessions in distinct period. To evaluate the feasibility of our approach, we collect traffic in real-world environment to construct two distinct sizes of datasets. In the first dataset, we have 55 users' traffic during five weeks and the accuracy of our approach could reach 100%. To further illustrate the scalability of this approach, 509 users are selected from the second dataset in terms of the user's active degree. Finally, we can correctly correlate average 85.61% instances. Our extensive empirical experiments demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our approach.

In recent years, several methods for gene networks (GNs) inference from expression data have been developed. Also, models of data integration (as protein-protein and protein-DNA) are nowadays broadly used to face the problem of few amount of expression data. Moreover, it is well known that biological networks conserve some topological properties. The small-world topology is a common arrangement in nature found both in biological and non-biological phenomena. However, in general this information is not used by GNs inference methods. In this work we proposed a new GNs inference algorithm that combines topological features and expression data. The algorithm outperforms the approach that uses only expression data both in accuracy and measures of recovered network.

Embodied expertise, which expresses skills of experts, is a kind of tacit knowledge that is difficult to transfer from one person to another by writing it down or verbalizing it. The aim of our study is to translate embodied expertise into explicit knowledge, i.e. onomatopoeias. We call the onomatopoeias "embodied expertise onomatopoeias", which can enable people to understand the skills intuitively and easily. Acquiring embodied expertise onomatopoeias is considered as a problem of patternrecognition. Our study focused on the skills of Japanese penmanship, Pen Shodo, which is Japanese calligraphy using a pen, to translate tacit knowledge into onomatopoeias and investigated the possibility of constructing a training system for these skills.

Many efforts have been made in recent years to tackle the unconstrained face recognition challenge. For the benchmark of this challenge, the Labeled Faces in the Wild (LFW) database has been widely used. However, the standard LFW protocol is very limited, with only 3,000 genuine and 3,000 impostor matches for classification. Today a 97% accuracy can be achieved with this benchmark, remaining a very limited room for algorithm development. However, we argue that this accuracy may be too optimistic because the underlying false accept rate may still be high (e.g. 3%). Furthermore, performance evaluation at low FARs is not statistically sound by the standard protocol due to the limited number of impostor matches. Thereby we develop a new benchmark protocol to fully exploit all the 13,233 LFW face images for large-scale unconstrained face recognition evaluation under both verification and open-set identification scenarios, with a focus at low FARs. Based on the new benchmark, we evaluate 21 face recognition approaches by combining 3 kinds of features and 7 learning algorithms. The benchmark results show that the best algorithm achieves 41.66% verification rates at FAR=0.1%, and 18.07% open-set identification rates at rank 1 and FAR=1%. Accordingly we conclude that the large-scale unconstrained face recognition problem is still largely unresolved, thus further attention and effort is needed in developing effective feature representations and learning algorithms. We thereby release a benchmark tool to advance research in this field.

Most of the current practice of pattern matching tools is oriented towards finding efficient ways to compare sequences. This is useful but insufficient: as the knowledge and understanding of some functional or structural aspects of living systems improve, analysts in molecular biology progressively shift from mere classification tasks to modeling tasks. People need to be able to express global sequence architectures and check various hypotheses on the way their sequences are structured. It appears necessary to offer generic tools for this task, allowing to build more expressive models of biological sequence families, on the basis of their content and structure. This article introduces Logol, a new application designed to achieve pattern matching in possibly large sequences with customized biological patterns. Logol consists in both a language for describing patterns, and the associated parser for effective pattern search in sequences (RNA, DNA or protein) with such patterns. The Logol language, based on an high level grammatical formalism, allows to express flexible patterns (with mispairings and indels) composed of both sequential elements (such as motifs) and structural elements (such as repeats or pseudoknots). Its expressive power is presented through an application using the main components of the language : the identification of -1 programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF) events in messenger RNA sequences. Logol allows the design of sophisticated patterns, and their search in large nucleic or amino acid sequences. It is available on the GenOuest bioinformatics platform at http://***. The core application is a command-line application, available for different operating systems. The Logol suite also includes interfaces, e. g. an interface for graphically drawing the pattern.

The paper presents the application of multidimensional data visualization to obtain the views of 5-dimensional space of features created by recognition of printed characters. On the basis of these views it was stated that the features chosen to construction of features space are sufficient to correct recognition process. This is the significant help by constructing the recognition systems because the correct selection of objects properties on the basis of which the recognition should occur is one of the hardest stages.

This paper identifies and analyses the factors that contribute to the similarity between two sets of minutiae points as well as the probability that two sets of minutiae points were extracted from fingerprints of the same finger. Minutiae-based fingerprint matching has been studied extensively in the literature, however, there is still a need for major improvement especially when it comes to comparing partial fingerprints. This paper looks at existing similarity measures;discusses their performance at discriminating between minutiae points from fingerprints of the same finger and of different fingers. The matching problem has been broken down into smaller subproblems which are easier to define and solve. Each of the scores discussed are analyzed and tested to see if they are able to deal with each of the matching subproblems. Results show that most scores in the literature fall in one of two ends of matching;good at discriminating impostor matches, or good at discriminating genuine matches. The authors propose a score which bridges these two types of scores and enables optimal impostor and genuine comparisons.

Combining multiple bioinformatics such as shape and color is a challenging task in object recognition. Usually, we believe that if more different bioinformatics are considered in object recognition, then we could get better result. Bag-of-words-based image representation is one of the most relevant approaches;many feature fusion methods are based on this model. Sparse coding has attracted a considerable amount of attention in many domains. A novel sparse feature fusion algorithm is proposed to fuse multiple bioinformatics to represent the images. Experimental results show good performance of the proposed algorithm.
