Cancelable biometrics is a robust and secure biometric recognition method using revocable biometric template in order to prevent possible compromisation of the original biometric data. In this paper, we present a new cancelable bits extraction method for the facial data. We use our previous cancelable feature template for the bits extraction. The adopted cancelable template is generated from two different original face feature vectors extracted from two different appearance-based approaches. Each element of feature vectors is re-ordered, and the scrambled features are added. With the added feature, biometric bits string is extracted using helper data based method. In this technique, helper data is generated using statistical property of the added feature vector, which can be easily replaced with straightforward revocation. Because, the helper data only utilizes partial information of the added feature, our proposed method is a more secure method than our previous one. The proposed method utilizes the helper data to reduce feature variance within the same individual and increase the distinctiveness of bit strings of different individuals for good recognition performance. For a security evaluation of our proposed method, a scenario in which the system is compromised by an adversary is also considered. In our experiments, we analyze the proposed method with respect to performance and security using the extended YALEB face database

The old age may experienced the visual acuity decrease according to refraction abnormality and they have a inconvenient real life style on viewing condition. So that, This study can provide the accurate information on the treatment of visual acuity of a male old ages by test of eye refraction state. The test was performed the visual acuity test by the object and subject methods.and the subjects was the Korean male over 55 old age. The eye types were 0.8 % positive for emmetropia, 15.2 % for myopia, and 84 % for hyperopia, respectively. The abnormal refraction eyes were 1.3 % positive for simple myopic astigmatism, 13.9 % for compound myopic astigmatism. 3.4 % for simple hyperopia and 3.1 % for simple hyperopic astigmatism, 77.5 % for mixed astigmatism, respectively. The asix of astigmatisms were 62% positive for against-the-rule astigmatism, 6% for with-the rule astigmatism, and 32 % for oblique astigmatism, respectively. On the total myopic spherical power, the $-0.50{\leq}$spheric equivalent <-2.00 diopter was 84.3%, the $-2.00{\leq}$spherical equivalent <-6.00.diopter was 15.7%. On the total hyperopic spherical power, the $+0.50{\leq}$spheric equivalent <+2.00 diopter was 74.2%, the $+2.00{\leq}$spherical equivalent <+6.00 diopter was 24.8%, and anything over the +6.00 diopter was 1%. On the astigmatic power, the $0.5{\leq}$cylinder <1.00 diopter was 54.1%, the $1.00{\leq}$cylinder <2.00 diopter was 32.4%, and anything over the 2.00 cylinder diopter was 13.5%.
