A new set of algorithms submitted by Innovatrics to NIST’s Evaluation of Latent Friction Ridge Technology (ELFT) has scored top marks in fingerprint biometrics accuracy across several categories amid broad performance improvements. While the speed of Innovatrics’ algorithm is not comparable to that of the fastest entries, the new entry shaves 22 percent off the mean mated search duration of the company’s previous entry. The results improve on those for an algorithm submitted to ELFT by Innovatrics in February across the board. Like those results, Innovatrics says its latest benchmarking metrics show how its fingerprint biometrics make match determinations easier for law enforcement and forensics experts.
