Palm vein pattern recognition is one of the newest biometric techniques researched today. This paper proposes project the palm vein image matrix based on independent component analysis directly, then calculates the Euclidean distance of the projection matrix, seeks the nearest distance for classification. The experiment has been done in a self-build palm vein database. Experimental results show that the algorithm of independent component analysis is suitable for palm vein recognition and the recognition performance is practical.

Palm vein pattern recognition is one of the newest biometric techniques researched today.At present, literatures selecte the center of the palm as the ROI of palm vein recognition. However the vein image in this area is not clear in some peoples palm. In this paper, we proposed a new location method of ROI which takes thenar area as the ROI. In the experiment part, it compares the recognition rate between the new and the traditional ROI in self-established contactless palm vein database. The result shows that this new method has got the recognition rate of 98.9258% and has increased recognition rate 2.0911% compared with the traditional one.

Term structure is a useful curve describing some financial asset as a function of time to maturity or expiration. In this paper, we propose to use Independent Component Analysis (ICA) to model the term structure of multiple yield curves. The idea is that we first employ ICA to decompose the multivariate time series, then we suggest two ICA methods for dimension reduction and pattern recognition of the term structure. We also compare the results by using an alternative method, Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The empirical studies suggest that the proposed ICA approaches outperform PCA methods in modeling the term structure. This model can be used in financial time series analysis as well as related financial applications.

In this paper, a novel sparse component multi-resolution independent component analysis is presented. This method separates mixed images based on quadratic function of sparse component coefficient. The quadratic function can be interpreted as the time-frequency function or time-scale function. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated by using noisy mixed images data. Experimental results show that the method is feasible.

Palm vein pattern recognition is one of the newest biometric techniques researched today. This paper presents a palm vein recognition instrument that uses blood vessel patterns as a personal identifying factor. The instrument uses the recognition algorithm of two dimensional Fisher linear discriminant for classification. The experiment has been done in a self-build palm vein database. Experimental results show that the designed instrument achieves an acceptable level of performance.
