We discuss the fundamental limits of fiber Bragg grating (FBG) wavelength metrology. High-accuracy wavelength measurements are critical for FBG strain sensors, because wavelength measurement uncertainties even as small as 1 pm lead to an uncertainty of
This note concerns the mathematical aspects for several biometric algorithms in the recognition or identification problem. It is assumed that a biometric signature is presented to a system which compares it with a database of signatures of known
This paper has been presented as a plenary Lecture at the Eighteenth International Conference on Chemical Thermodynamics held August 17-20, 2004, in Beijing,China. Unprecedented growth in the number of custom-designed software tools for engineering
