A Fingerprint Method for Scientific Data Verification

  • Conference paper
Book cover Advances in Computer and Information Sciences and Engineering

Abstract

This article discusses an algorithm (called "UNF") for verifying digital data matrices. This algorithm is now used in a number of software packages and digital library projects. We discuss the details of the algorithm, and offer an extension for normalization of time and duration data.
