Papers from an October 2004 workshop highlight the latest work in the areas of physically-motivated and biologically-inspired algorithms, kernel-based methods and combinations of classifiers, medical and biometrics The biological identification of a person. Examples are face, iris and retinal patterns, hand geometry and voice. Increasingly built into laptop computers, fingerprint readers have become popular as a secure method for identification.  applications, validation methods, and novel applications. Some subjects examined in detail include fusion for video tracking, synthetic aperture radar Synthetic aperture radar (SAR)

Radar, airborne or satellite-borne, that uses special signal processing to produce high-resolution images of the surface of the Earth (or another object) while traversing a considerable flight path.
, hyperspectral change detection, and multipath mitigation in radio frequency detection. Other topics discussed include P-trees, swarmed feature selection, and mammography mammography, diagnostic procedure that uses low-dose X rays to detect abnormalities in the breasts. The early diagnosis of breast cancer made possible by the routine use of mammography for screening women increases a woman's treatment alternatives and improves her  databases. Novel applications described include planetary plan·e·tar·y
