A Generative Model for Fingerprint Minutiae

June 4, 2013
Author(s)
Melissa K. Taylor, Nicholas G. Paulter Jr., Qijun Zhao, Yi Zhang, Anil K. Jain
Fingerprint minutiae are the most important features used by latent fingerprint examiners, as well as in automated fingerprint recognition systems. Hence, understanding the statistical distribution of minutiae is essential in many fingerprint recognition

FACTS: A Framework for Analysis, Comparison, and Test of Standards

May 9, 2013
Author(s)
Paul W. Witherell, Sudarsan Rachuri, Anantha Narayanan Narayanan, Jae H. Lee
Open and consensus standards play a critical role in enabling globally distributed manufacturing. A close connection between standards development (supply side) and implementation strategies (demand side) is critical for widespread adoption of standards

Field Standards for Weights and Measures

April 1, 2013
Author(s)
Georgia L. Harris
An article written for the measurement community on whether [field] standards are “fit for purpose”. Is the equipment used is in testing designed for the purpose in which it is being used. The concept of fit for purpose is common in method validation

Coordinate Metrology and the Proposed E57.02 Static Pose Determination Standard
