Key Facts
- The innovatrics+0014 submission placed first for two hit-rate measures and two false negative identification rate measures.
- It recorded a 99.3 percent rank-1 hit rate without similarity-score filtering, and 98.9 percent at rank-100 at a 10 percent false positive identification rate.
- On a Department of Defense set of over 5,257 latent probes against about 1.6 million reference profiles, it returned a 4.85 percent false negative identification rate at a 0.01 false positive rate.
Card Text
Latent print matching remains one of the harder biometric problems because probe images are partial, distorted, and captured without subject cooperation. Independent NIST evaluation is the main comparable signal buyers have when assessing forensic ABIS claims.
