This book presents a new methodology to develop system-level brain models using ordinary differential equations (ODE), which are to be solved and analyzed through simple Python scripts.

This open access book delves into the emerging field of biometric identification using brainwave patterns. Specifically, this book presents recent advances in electroencephalography (EEG)-based biometric recognition to identify unique neural signatures that can be used for secure authentication and identification.Traditional biometric systems such as fingerprints, iris scans, and face recognition have become integral to security and identification. However, these methods are increasingly vulnerable to spoofing and other forms of attack. Unlike other traditional biometrics, EEG signals are non-invasive, continuous authentication, liveness detection, and resistance to coercion due to the complexity and uniqueness of brain patterns. Therefore, it is particularly suitable for high-security fields such as military and finance, providing a promising alternative for future high-security identification and authentication.However, most of the existing brain fingerprint identification studies require subjects to perform specific cognitive tasks, which limits the popularization and application of brain fingerprint identification in practical scenarios. Additionally, due to the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and time-varying characteristics of EEG signals, there are distribution differences in EEG data across sessions from several days, leading to stability issues in brain fingerprint features extracted at different sessions. Finally, because the EEG signal is affected by the coupling of multiple factors and the nervous system has continuous spontaneous variability, which makes it difficult for the brain fingerprint identification model to be suitable for the scenarios of unseen sessions and cognitive tasks, and there is the problem of insufficient model generalization. In this book, based on traditional machine learning methods and deep learning methods, the authors will carry out multi-task single-session, single-task multi-session, and multi-task multi-session brain fingerprint identification research respectively for the above problems, to provide an effective solution for the application of brain fingerprint identification in practical scenarios.

This book provides an in-depth study of biomedical image analysis. It reviews and summarizes previous research work in biomedical image analysis and also provides a brief introduction to other computation techniques, such as fuzzy sets, neutrosophic sets, clustering algorithm and fast forward quantum optimization algorithm, focusing on how these techniques can be integrated into different phases of the biomedical image analysis. In particular, this book describes novel methods resulting from the fuzzy sets, neutrosophic sets, clustering algorithm and fast forward quantum optimization algorithm. It also demonstrates how a new quantum-clustering based model can be successfully applied in the context of clustering the COVID-19 CT scans. Thanks to its easy-to-read style and the clear explanations of the models, the book can be used as a concise yet comprehensive reference guide to biomedical image analysis, and will be valuable not only for graduate students, but also for researchers and professionals working for academic, business and government institutes and medical colleges.
