The performance of minutiae extraction algorithms and other fingerprint recognition techniques relies heavily on the quality of the fingerprint images, and thus, pre-processing is a very important ...

However, latent fingerprints often are partial prints with undesirable characteristics such as noise or distortion. Due to these characteristics, identifying the physical details of a latent ...

Finally, advancements in minutiae detection—key points in fingerprint images—are crucial for improving the overall performance of fingerprint recognition systems. A new framework has been ...

A vascular 'fingerprint' on the light sensitive tissue layer at the back of the eye—the retina—can predict a person's risk of stroke as accurately as traditional risk factors alone ...

But scientists have found a new way to predict a stroke, which they say may be as effective as relying on traditional risk factors: using photos of the eye. A stock photo of a doctor talking to a ...

Yellow or green discharge (pus) in the eye The eyelids are stuck (matted) together with pus after sleep After being wiped away, the pus comes back during the day Often caused by a bacterial eye ...

A vascular 'fingerprint' on the light sensitive tissue layer at the back of the eye—the retina—can predict a person's risk of stroke as accurately as traditional risk factors alone, but without the ...

15, 2025 — Data from continuous glucose monitors can predict nerve, eye and kidney damage caused by type 1 diabetes researchers have found. That suggests doctors may be able to use data from the ...
