Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for efficiently mapping a pattern, such as a fingerprint, from a set of multiple impressions of portions of that pattern. The system may evaluate images of patterns taken from a series of multiple impressions and map the pattern from the image portions while providing the operator with realtime feedback of a status of the set of images. As each new image portion is evaluated, a display graphic or other indicator provides feedback when a new image portion is added to the reconstructed image, or when a new image portion is not added (such as it representing a duplicate). Other status indications may be provided, and when the indication is visual, a degraded resolution of the pattern map may be provided on the display graphic to improve security.

Abstract: A system and method for selectively enrolling new pattern information in a way that reduces incorrect mapping or reduces overuse of previously mapped pattern information using a multi-match model. A method for dynamically enrolling a pattern-under-test into a pattern template, the pattern template including a set of template elements, may include a) determining a number N of template elements of the set of template elements matched by the pattern-under-test, wherein N is greater than one; b) establishing a multi-match mode for a dynamic enrollment of the pattern-under-test into the pattern template; and c) enrolling dynamically the pattern-under-test responsive to the multi-match mode.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for efficiently reconstructing a pattern, such as a fingerprint, from a set of multiple impressions of portions of that pattern. The system may evaluate images of patterns taken from a series of multiple impressions and reconstruct the pattern from the image portions while providing the operator with realtime feedback of a status of the set of images. As each new image portion is evaluated, a display graphic or other indicator provides feedback when a new image portion is added to the reconstruction image, or when a new image portion is not added (such as it representing a duplicate).

Abstract: A portable electronic system that includes a biometric imaging device, such as for a fingerprint verification against a trusted pattern template. Security is a factor of a matching process and a quality of the trusted pattern template. By employing a set of user-predictably-influenceable sensor parameters in cooperation with the biometric sensor, it is possible to simply and efficiently enhance security as compared to use of the biometric sensor alone.

Abstract: A system and method for providing a matching process that determines a conforming pattern match to a pattern-under-test from a set of matching patterns in a pattern storage. A matching process tests every template against the pattern-under-test and resolves a conforming match condition when multiple matches to the pattern-under-test are found. In some embodiments, a matcher engine using variable match thresholds may be used to differentiate among matching templates to identify a conforming-matching template with respect to the pattern-under-test.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for producing a consistent desired set of operational parameters during use of a patterning solution that would otherwise alter an initial set of operational parameters. A variable match process is adjusted dynamically to counter changes to the performance metric to tend to maintain the performance metric at a desired predetermined specification.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for efficiently and securely evolving a pattern, such as a fingerprint representation, from a dynamic set of impressions responsive to a pattern-under-test which may be the pattern. The system may include two modes: 1) a trusted registration mode, and 2) a dynamic, semi-trusted, registration mode. In this context, the dynamic mode is semi-trusted in that it automatically employs trusted information to evaluate new, non-trusted input received from the pattern collection system and, in an event certain criteria are satisfied, this dynamic mode may gain automatic access to the trusted memory/trusted template. That the automatic access to the trusted template is conditional makes this dynamic mode semi-trusted. The trusted registration mode may include definition/production of a trusted template of trusted template elements in a trusted memory, at least one of the trusted template elements includes at least one evolvable seed.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for multiplicating pattern images used as a trusted resource while reducing user participation, such as, for example, a producing N number (N>1) of reconstructed pattern images using shared images common to at least two constructed pattern images.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for automatic machine-implemented pattern registration, particularly suited to small sensor systems which include a reduced image capture area size relative to the pattern being sensed.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for evaluating a conformance of sets of curves using curvature information from curve segments to identify conforming curve segments. These curve segments are evaluated for relative positional variations in a context of a cluster by triangulating corresponding points among the curve segments of the cluster. Little to no deviation between corresponding lengths in the clusters indicate a high probability of match. Confirmation may be done by a more rigorous pattern matcher based upon the conforming curve segments of a cluster.

Abstract: A system and method for selectively variably enhancing template matching when testing a pattern-under-test against a pattern template having two or more template elements. A matching process may be configured with a multi-match mode (MM) enabled or disabled. Disabling the MM allows the match process to indicate a match of the pattern-under-test to the pattern template when a single template element is matched (at a standard security mode). Enabling the MM allows a multi-match security mode in which the pattern-under-test must independently match two or more discrete template elements to report that the pattern-under-test matches the pattern template (with an improved security mode relative to the standard security mode).

Abstract: A system and method for improving speed of automated pattern testing for any particular hardware configuration. A pattern testing includes a matching process and a pre-match process that establishes features of interest used in the match process. The pre-match process is used to predict a likelihood of a passed match (or a failed match) and alters the subsequent match process in response to the prediction.
