In recent years, immense interest in the exploration of the generalized version of the
monotonicity condition has been significantly accomplished by the researchers. The …

Abstract Multimodal Biometric Systems are extensively employed over unimodal
counterparts for user authentication in the digital world. However, the application of …

Few studies of conflict analysis have analyzed conflict situations from the perspective of the
consistency degree of cliques. Quantifying the conflict degree is instructive for weakening or …

Biometric technology has become essential in our daily life. In such a biometric system,
personal identification is based on behavioral or biological characteristics. Recently, the trait …

The aim of this paper is to enlarge the knowledge about the promising concept of a pre-
aggregation function introduced by Lucca et al., which is a kind of “aggregation” concept that …

In the proposed multimodal biometric verification system, the system is implemented on all
levels of fusion strategies (i) fusion prior to matching (sensor level and feature level) and (ii) …

Human recognition in a multi‐biometric system is performed by combining biometric clues
from different sources (multiple sensors, units, algorithms, samples and modalities) at …

Pattern recognition technologies aim to develop new techniques for transforming original
data into other representations that honestly illustrate their content and can then be used to …

The aim of this paper is to introduce the concept of pre-t-conorms, based on the notion of pre-
aggregation function, which was introduced by Lucca et al. as an “aggregation” concept that …

In the classical simulated annealing algorithm (SAA), the iteration feasible solution is mainly
based on a certain random probability. In the process of iteration, there is a lack of …
