Biometric Updates

Can investigators use household dust as a forensic tool? April, 2023
It is possible to retrieve forensically relevant information from human DNA in household dust.
New research suggests peer-advisor relationship is key to success March, 2023
Collaborative research across the country has shown that strengthening the relationship between the student and advisor can increase retention rates in engineering doctoral studies.
Study highlights complicated relationship between AI and law enforcement March, 2023
A recent study that examined the relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and law enforcement underscores both the need for law enforcement agencies to be involved in the development of public policies regarding AI -- such as regulations governing autonomous vehicles -- and the need for law enforcement officers to better understand the limitations and ethical […]
New DNA biosensor could unlock powerful, low-cost clinical diagnostics January, 2023
By flagging disease-associated DNA biomarkers, medical professionals can make early diagnoses and provide personalized treatments, but the typical screening methods can be laborious, expensive or limited in scope. Now, a new biosensor could pave the way to accessible and expansive diagnostics.
Automatic speaker recognition technology outperforms human listeners in the courtroom November, 2022
The forensic-voice-comparison system, based on state-of-the-art automatic-speaker-recognition technology, outperformed all the listeners.
New report offers blueprint for regulation of facial recognition technology September, 2022
A new report outlines a model law for facial recognition technology to protect against harmful use of this technology, but also foster innovation for public benefit.
How old is that fingerprint? September, 2022
Forensic dramas on TV make it seem easy to determine when fingerprints were left at the scene of a crime. In reality, the oils in fingerprints degrade over time, and it's difficult to figure out their age. Now, researchers have discovered molecular markers for changes to these oils over a seven-day time period -- information […]
Optical imaging of dynamic interactions between molecules in a cell August, 2022
Researchers develop the 'photoswitching fingerprint analysis'. A unique technology that for the first time allows the analysis of molecular processes and the regulation of individual proteins in living cells with sub-10 nm spatial resolution. The application ranges from biological to medical research.
Sniffing out your identity with breath biometrics June, 2022
Researchers have developed an artificial 'nose' that can identify individuals from their breath. Built with a 16-channel sensor array that can detect different compounds found in a person's breath, the olfactory sensor system has the potential to become another option in the biometric security toolkit. Combined with machine learning, the 'artificial nose' was able to […]
Sensor imperfections are perfect for forensic camera analysis June, 2022
In a project aimed at developing intelligent tools to fight child exploitation, computer scientists have developed a system to analyze the noise produced by individual cameras. This information can be used to link a video or an image to a particular camera.
