  • Maryam Eskandari

15 June 2016

Multimodal biometric systems are considered a way to minimize the limitations raised by single traits. This paper proposes new schemes based on score level, feature level and decision level fusion to efficiently fuse face and iris modalities. Log-Gab...

Using the q-integral representation of Sears’ nonterminating extension of the q-Saalschütz summation, we derive a reduction formula for a kind of double q-integrals. This reduction formula is used to derive a curious double q-integral formula, and al...

The Skyrme force parameters can be uniquely determined by coarse graining the Nucleon-Nucleon (NN) interactions at a characteristic momentum scale. We show how exact V lowk potentials to second order in momenta are saturated with physical N...

  • Panayotis G. Kevrekidis

26 May 2016

As an extension of the class of nonlinear PT -symmetric models, we propose a system of sine-Gordon equations, with the PT symmetry represented by balanced gain and loss in them. The equations are coupled by sine-field terms and first-order...
