Semantic Analysis and Understanding of Human Behaviour in Video Streaming investigates the semantic analysis of the human behaviour captured by video streaming, and introduces both theoretical and technological points of view. Video analysis based on the semantic content is in fact still an open issue for the computer vision research community, especially when real-time analysis of complex scenes is concerned.

This book explores an innovative, original approach to human behaviour analysis and understanding by using the syntactical symbolic analysis of images and video...

This book examines the context, motivation and current status of biometric systems based on the palmprint, with a specific focus on touchless and less-constrained systems. It covers new technologies in this rapidly evolving field and is one of the first comprehensive books on palmprint recognition systems. It discusses the research literature and the most relevant industrial applications of palmprint biometrics, including the low-cost solutions based on webcams. The steps of biometric recognition are described in detail, including acquisition setups, algorithms, and evaluation procedures....

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Network and System Security, NSS 2016, held in Taipei, Taiwan, in September 2016.
The 31 full and 4 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 105 submissions. They were organized in topical sections named: authentication mechanism; cloud computing security; data mining for security application; privacy-preserving technologies; network security and forensics; searchable encryption; security policy and access control; security protocols, symmetric key cryptography; system...

This book examines the context, motivation and current status of biometric systems based on the palmprint, with a specific focus on touchless and less-constrained systems.

By presenting the latest advances in fuzzy sets and computing with words from around the globe, this book disseminates recent innovations in advanced intelligent technologies and systems.
