When Andrew John Wiles was 10 years old, he read Eric Temple Bell’s The Last Problem and was so impressed by it that he decided that he would be the first person to prove Fermat’s Last Theorem. This theorem states that there are no nonzero integers a, b, c, n with n> 2 such that a n + b n = c

In this work we describe experiments with eigenfaces for recognition and interactive search in a large-scale face database. Accurate visual recognition is demonstrated using a database of o(10^3) faces. The problem of recognition under general viewing orientation is also explained. A view

that Emerald has fine-grained mobility because Emerald objects can be small data objects as well as process objects. Fine-grained mobility allows us to apply mobility in new ways but presents imple-mentation problems as well. This paper discusses the benefits of tine-grained mobility, the Emerald language

structure encoded by multi-scale quadrature wavelets. The combinatorial complexity of this phase information across different persons spans about 244 degrees of freedom and gen-erates a discrimination entropy of about 3.2 bits/mm over the iris, enabling real-time decisions about per-sonal identity

An iterative method is given for solving Ax ~ffi b and minU Ax- b 112, where the matrix A is large and sparse. The method is based on the bidiagonalization procedure of Golub and Kahan. It is analytically equivalent to the standard method of conjugate gradients, but possesses more favorable
