A Study of Age and Ageing in Fingerprint Biometrics

Thanks to Mr. James Bond, we are aware that diamonds are forever but, are fingerprints? It is well known that biometrics brings to the security field a new paradigm; unlike traditional systems, individuals are not identified by something that they have or they know, but by what they are. While such an approach entails some clear advantages, an important question remains: is what we are today the same as what we will be tomorrow? This paper addresses such a key problem in the fingerprint modality based on a database of over 400K impressions coming from more than 250K different fingers.

Encryption-Free Framework of Privacy-Preserving Image Recognition for Photo-Based Information Services

Nowadays, mobile devices, such as smartphones, have been widely used all over the world. In addition, the performance of image recognition has drastically increased with deep learning technologies. From these backgrounds, some photo-based information services provided in a client-server architecture are getting popular: client users take a photo of a certain spot and send it to a server, while the server identifies the spot with an image recognizer and returns its related information to the users.

Postdoc in Machine Learning at USC

There is a postdoctoral scholar opportunity at the University of Southern
California (USC) in a multidisciplinary research area involving
sample/learning complexity in machine learning; optimization theory;
information theory; and graph signal processing. More specifically, we are
looking for a candidate with a strong theoretical foundation in some of these
areas while being motivated to apply the theory to practical datasets using
tools such as deep neural networks. The successful candidate will join a
