Author(s)
Douglas C. Montgomery
We examine the performance of multimodal biometric authentication systems using state-of-the-art Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) fingerprint and face biometric

Wavelet-Based Enveloping for Spindle Health Diagnosis

Author(s)
Li Zhang, Robert Gao, Kang B. Lee
A new method for identifying structural defect-induced vibration signals was developed based on the analytic wavelet transform. The advantage of this method is

Micro-Feature Metrology

Author(s)
Bala Muralikrishnan, Jack A. Stone Jr., John R. Stoup
This presentation focuses on three aspects of micro-feature metrology novel applications that drive research and commercialization, capabilities and limitations

Unbiased Estimation of Linewidth Roughness

Author(s)
John S. Villarrubia, B Bunday
Line width roughness (LWR) is usually estimated simply as three standard deviations of the line width. The effect of image noise upon this metric includes a

Mobility Open Architecture Simulation and Tools Environment

Author(s)
Stephen B. Balakirsky, Christopher J. Scrapper Jr, Elena R. Messina
This paper will describe the Mobility Open Architecture Tools and Simulation (MOAST) environment. This environment conforms to the NIST 4D/RCS architecture [3]
