摘要:
An authentication system incorporates pluralilty of fused biometric modalities which are combined with quality indicia of the biometric samples. Fusion processing maps individual modality data along with one or more quality measurements to a fused score for purposes of making an authentication decision.

A system, method and apparatus for performing a facial approximation is described. The system includes an acquisition subsystem and a facial approximation algorithm. The method includes the steps of acquiring models of known skulls and a model of a questioned skull, comparing the models of the known skulls with the model of the questioned skull, and removing variation in the facial structure of the questioned skull due to skeletal variation between the known skulls and the questioned skull. The apparatus includes a bony structure software component, a bony structure warping software component, and a soft tissue software component.

A stabilizing and support accessory is provided for a stiletto heel. A base plate, having a surface contact area significantly greater than that of the heel, is mounted underneath the heel by means of a simple, clip-on attachment, such that the attachment can be easily and quickly mounted on a heel for walking over soft or uneven surfaces, and also quickly removed when not needed. A preferred clip-on attachment is formed of a section of spring steel shaped into an upwardly opening, U-shaped clip and a horizontally opening clip integrally extending from one element of the upwardly opening clip. An alternative form, formed primarily of plastic, is attached by a single, horizontally disposed clip gripping the heel. The accessories are sufficiently inexpensive that they may be discarded after use, as after walking on muddy surfaces, for example.

Methods and systems for determining whether a particular individual is to be granted, among other things, access to information, access to a particular room or other space, or permission to perform a given act or transaction are disclosed. For example, disclosed is an exemplary method that includes performing multiple biometrics tests on the individual to retrieve multiple biometrics test results, performing at least a first data fusion operation on the multiple biometrics test results to determine an identity result, performing at least one biological state test to determine one or more biological state test results of the individual, and conditionally granting authority to the individual based on the identity result and the one or more biological state results.
摘要:
The present invention provides compounds of formula (I); pharmaceutically acceptable salts and N-oxides thereof in which A, B, D and E are C or N with the proviso that one or more are N, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 are simple substituents, n is 0-3 and y is an aryl, heteroaryl, carbocyclyl or fused-carbocyclyl group; as VR-1 antagonists for treating conditions or diseases in which pain and/or inflammation predominates; the use of the same for manufacturing medicaments, pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and methods of treatment utilising them.
