The wide use of digital media during the past few years, has led to an increase of digital piracy and tampering. To deal with these problems, the concept of digital fingerprinting has been introduced. Digital fingerprinting is an effective method to identify users who might try to redistribute multimedia content. In this paper, we propose new digital image fingerprinting techniques using watermark shifting scheme and concept of domain.

In urban areas, GPS(Global Positioning System)/GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) signals are blocked or distorted by structures such as buildings, which limits positioning. To compensate for this problem, in this paper, fingerprinting-based positioning using RSRP(: Reference Signal Received Power) information of LTE signals is performed. The W-KNN(Weighted - K Nearest Neighbors) technique, which is widely used in the positioning step of fingerprinting, yields different positioning performance results depending on the similarity distance calculation method and weighting method used in correlation. In this paper, the performance of the fingerprinting positioning according to the techniques used in correlation is comparatively analyzed experimentally.

Recently, IPS(Indoor Positioning System) Technology has been progressing study and research, It has been studied in the fingerprinting and trilateration continuously. however because Fingerprinting and Trilateration Technology use AP(Access Point) for Positioning Calculation, Fingerprinting and Trilateration are not never had a credit positioning accuracy by using unstable RSSI in large scale. in this paper, to improve the problem about precise positioning in wide area, we introduced a concept of Sector including Cell. Sectors are not involved in each other and only fingerprinting calculation is proceed in a sector. we suggest this fingerprinting system considering efficiency and accuracy and compared to conventional fingerprinting, we demonstrated our system efficiency by mathematical techniques.

For the indoor positioning, wireless fingerprinting is most favorable because fingerprinting is most accurate among the techniques for wireless network based indoor positioning which does not require any special equipments dedicated for positioning. The deployment of a fingerprinting method consists of off-line phase and on-line phase. Off-line phase is not a time critical procedure, but on-line phase is indeed a time-critical procedure. If it is too slow then the user's location can be changed while it is calculating and the positioning method would never be accurate. Even so there is no research of improving efficiency of on-line phase of wireless fingerprinting. This paper proposes a decision-tree method for wireless fingerprinting and performs comparative analysis of the fingerprinting techniques including K-NN, Bayesian and our decision-tree.

The illegal copying and redistribution of digitally-stored information is a crucial problem to distributors who electronically sell digital data. Fingerprinting scheme is a techniques which supports copyright protection to track redistributors of electronic information using cryptographic techniques. Anonymous fingerprinting schemes, differ from symmetric fingerprinting, prevent the merchant from framing a buyer by making the fingerprinted version known to the buyer only. And the scheme, differ from asymmetric fingerprinting, allows the buyer to purchase goods without revealing her identity to the merchant. In this paper, a new anonymous fingerprinting scheme based on secret sharing is introduced. The merchant finds a sold version that has been distributed, and then he is able to retrieve a buyer's identity and take her to court. And Schnorr's digital signature prevents the buyer from denying the fact he redistributed. The buyer's anonymity relies on the security of discrete logarithm and secure two-party computations.

Recently, research on indoor locating techniques using smart device sensors has been conducted actively, Owing to the exponential increase in the use of various smart devices. However, in order to develop indoor location techniques, there are limitations due to the requirement that the tracking system has to function without GPS. In this paper, we propose an accurate indoor locating system that does not require additional infrastructure. The proposed scheme is developed based on the idea that the advantages and disadvantages of "Wi-Fi Fingerprinting" and "Step Detection" techniques are complementary. In the proposed scheme, we track users with "Step Detection," and correct errors with "Wi-Fi Fingerprinting." In this paper, we demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of our proposed scheme through experiments.

Fingerprinting scheme supports the copyright protection to track redistributors of digital content using cryptographic techniques. Fingerprinting schemes should guarantee buyer's anonymity and asymmetry for their privacy. Most of known fingerprinting schemes adopt public-key cryptosystems to achieve asymmetry and discrete logarithm problem or graph isomorphism problem to achieve anonymity. However, these schemes are not suited in mobile environment because of the drawbacks of requiring high computational complexity. In this paper, we propose an efficient fingerprinting scheme for mobile environment to provide not only asymmetry of the protocol but also transaction anonymity of the buyer. By employing symmetric encryption to encrypt the digital content and adopting agent to perform the protocols, the efficiency of the proposed scheme is improved.

Fingerprinting is a frontier technique that is the most frequently applied for human identification throughout the world. All citizens over 17 year old living in the Republic of Korea must be fingerprinted to obtain a certificate of resident registration. In Korea, for this reason, human identification through fingerprints has been far better developed and used efficiently both in crime scene investigation and in confirmation of an unidentified body. Scientific approaches have been made to accurately extract the metamorphosed fingerprints in various environments. Because most of the studies on fingerprinting have been accomplished with biometric techniques, researches on restoration of human dermal tissue and taking custody data after collecting fingerprints have been comparatively undermined. In this study, a newly innovative method for fingerprint extraction was developed using the polyester film with print powders and the high temperature-moisturizing method. Compared to the conventional fingerprinting method of paper with ink, minutiae numbers of fingerprints were greatly increased in polyester film with print powders after restoration of fingertips by high temperature-moisturization. This newly developed procedure would be an efficient fingerprinting technique which could be utilized in scientific investigation and in personal identification in the future. Furthermore, the new method for restoration and extraction of fingerprints are easy and inexpensive to practice for a number of human identification.

To investigate dose-effect of a chemical mutagen, sodium azide on a rice elite line, Suweon472, seed aliquots were treated with five different concentrations of sodium azide. The degree of mutation levels of each aizde concentration were estimated by using DNA fingerprinting techniques such as RAPD and AFLP. Some selected mutant lines ($M_4$) were also subjected for DNA fingerprinting to estimate their mutation levels by comparing the banding patterns of the wild type, Suweon 472. RAPD and AFLP fingerprinting patterns indicated that dose-effect of different azide concentrations was not clear. With allele description of detected AFLPs among favorable mutant lines, it was possible to discriminate each mutant line from others which have similar phenotypes and reactions against pathogens. AFLP fingerprinting patterns of waxy mutant lines, otherwise, were highly homogeneous as well as their phenotypic and agronomic characters.
