However, the lack of the abilities to simulate some of the important mine fire phenomena realistically hindered its wide applications. This research carried out to improve and upgrade the MFIRE 2.20 program to MFIRE 2.30. The new additions of MFIRE 2.30 including a time dependent fire model, smoke rollback prediction, the incorporation of a moving fire source, and a rewriting of MFIRE in Microsoft Visual C++ were interpreted.展开更多

The generation of authentication signature is based on Hotelling's T-square Statistic (HTS) via Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of block DCT coefficients. HTS values of all blocks construct a unique and stable "block-edge image", i.e, Structural and Statistical Signature (SSS). The characteristic of SSS is that it is short, and can tolerate contentpreserving manipulations while keeping sensitive to content-changing attacks, and locate tampering easily. During signature matching, the Fisher criterion is used to obtain optimal threshold for automatically and universally distinguishing incidental manipulations from malicious attacks. Moreover, the security of SSS is achieved by encryption of the DCT coefficients with chaotic sequences before PCA. Experiments show that the novel method is effective for authentication.展开更多
