Abstract: Systems, methods, etc., that that assist a print examiner to thoroughly search and compare a print or substantial portion thereof against a known print database contained within an AFIS system. In certain embodiments, the prints can be definitively matched to a corresponding same print in the database. A result of a more thorough search and comparison can be a higher hit score and accuracy rate. In certain embodiments, the database comprises a candidate list of previously obtained prints to assist in the identification.

Abstract: Magnitude enhancement analysis of medical and dental images of tissue or organs such as MRI, PET, CT and x-ray images configured to display intensity-related features of high-bit images, such as grayscale without distorting the underlying intensity unless desired, and/or enhancing perception of saturation, hue, color channels and other space dimensions in a digital image, and external datasets related to a 2D image. In a preferred embodiment, the tissue or organ has been administered a contrast agent prior to the image being taken. In a more preferred embodiment, a series of images of the same tissue or organ has been taken over time to show changes in the tissue or organ over time.

Abstract: A method for analysis of DNA data. A DNA source image is generated based on the DNA data. A digital bit-map is created from the DNA source image plotting image intensity data against a two-dimensional coordinate system from an initial viewpoint. An image model is generated based on the digital bit-map. The image model comprises model data representing the image intensity data as virtual points on a three-dimensional coordinate system further incorporating the the two-dimensional coordinate system of the digital bit map. A DNA analysis image is generated based on the image model. The DNA analysis image represents the model data from an analysis viewpoint with respect to the two-dimensional coordinate system. The analysis viewpoint differs from the initial viewpoint. The DNA analysis image is then displayed.

Abstract: A method of enhancing a source image for analysis. The method comprises the steps of digitizing the source image to obtain pixel data comprising location data and density data, generating a three-dimensional model of the pixel data with the location data represented in first and second axes and the density data represented in a third axis, and analyzing the three-dimensional model to determine features of the source image.

Abstract: A method for analysis of a two-dimensional image. The two-dimensional image is scanned to form a digital bit-map of X-Y axis locations in the image. Gray-scale densities are measured at each of the locations, and are used to calculate third, Z-axis values. The X-Y-Z axis coordinates are plotted so as to form a virtual three-dimensional image having a contour that corresponds to variations in the gray-scale density in the two-dimensional source image. The virtual three-dimensional image provides for enhanced visualization, measurement and analysis of features and characteristics contained within the source image. The gray-scale density may be black-and-white gray-density or RGB color-density or other digital color mapping protocols reduced or converted, for example, to 8-bit 256 gray or color scale. The two-dimensional source image may be a sample of handwriting. A method for enhanced two-dimensional analysis using the digitized bit-map of the source image is also provided.
