In the modern landscape of developing intelligent systems to address the challenges of smart cities, there is a growing emphasis on constructing distributed intelligent systems. These systems, built upon a network of sensors and specialized calculators, provide real-time assistance to residents and visitors alike in solving a wide array of complex problems that arise in urban environments.

Within the realm of smart cities, significant attention is given to the processing of biometric information derived from biometric sensors strategically placed throughout the city. These biometric systems are highly versatile, enabling the monitoring of a person's overall health and facilitating their navigation within the city. Moreover, they possess the ability to predict events within the city, enhancing the overall safety and convenience of its inhabitants.

This book delves into methods for processing biometric information within the context of a smart city environment. It explores the theoretical foundations of building a unified urban biometric community, emphasizing the role of biometric multisensor networks. The theoretical underpinnings of parallel shift technology and the Radon transformation on cellular automata with a hexagonal covering are presented, providing the basis for developing effective biometric identification techniques.

Specifically, the book describes methods for biometric identification based on gait parameters and the geometric shape of the auricle. These methods are highly valuable in a smart city setting, as they can accurately identify individuals and enhance security measures. Additionally, the book considers a method for tracking dynamic changes in the state of a smart city in real time, employing models of behavior of living organisms, their formation, movement, and interaction.

Furthermore, the book explores the technology of cellular automata with active cells, which is utilized to model the behavior of living organisms and their interactions within the city. Models of behavior of active cells in encountering unwanted cells and models of combining and destroying active cell colonies are described, providing insights into the complex dynamics of smart city ecosystems.

This book is designed to cater to undergraduate, graduate students, and professionals interested in the field of intelligent systems and smart cities. It offers a comprehensive and in-depth exploration of the latest developments in biometric information processing, providing valuable insights and practical applications for building safer, more efficient, and sustainable smart cities.
