Presented at the International Association for Identification nd Annual Educational Conference - August This presentation includes information about how to structure validation studies for common processes e.
An example of a recent study conducted in the presenter's laboratory is included. Poster presentation at the International Association for Identification nd Annual Educational Conference - August This presentation addresses the little known pioneering work of the Denmark Police who initiated the world's first electronic encoding of fingerprint minutiae incorporating some features of the modified Henry classification system facilitating remote electronic identification confirmation that minutiae corresponded and exclusion.

Poster presentation at the International Association for Identification nd Annual Educational Conference - August This presentation addresses the effects of various temperature and humidity combinations over time for the development of latent prints. Ambient development conditions not artifically increased humidity were shown to be optimal in this study. The presentation diagram shows a fuming cabinet with specimens positioned above the heated cyanoacrylate.
The manual considers fingerprint examination from the receipt of items into a laboratory to the delivery of a report as a seamless and interdependent process.
It does not consider the recovery of fingermarks from the crime scene, although much of the information within the visualization chapter is relevant.
The full manual is online here. The full published paper addressed by the presentation is online here. This presentation explained the reasoning behind the new reporting language of the DFSC. For over years, fingerprint evidence has been used as a valuable tool for the criminal justice system.
While the uniqueness of a complete record of friction ridge skin detail is generally undisputed, the extension of that premise to partial and degraded impressions has become a central issue of debate. Over the last several years, there has been growing criticism among the scientific and legal communities regarding the use of such terms to express source associations which rely on expert interpretation.
The crux of the criticism is that these terms imply absolute certainty and infallibility to the fact-finder which has not been demonstrated by available scientific data. Consequently, the traditional paradigm of reporting latent fingerprint conclusions with an implication of absolute certainty to a single source has been challenged.
The underlying basis for the challenge pertains to the logic applied during the interpretation of the evidence and the framework by which that evidence is articulated. By recognizing the subtle, yet non-trivial differences in the logic, the fingerprint community may consider an alternative framework to report fingerprint evidence to ensure the certainties are not over or understated.
Out of the Frye-ing pan and into the Fire by Francis P. Senese Presented at the Illinois Division, International Association for Identification's IAI 54th Annual Educational Conference - April This presentation details historical background and other important factors to consider for Daubert, Frye and similar scientific process challenge hearings. Transmogrification - Surgical incisions and rotation of fingerprint focal point areas e.
Zubanski, A. Tyzwa, T. Szcepanski, K. Klemczak and U. Wieckiewicz outlines the planned development of software cataloguing and documenting validated processes for latent print development on difficult surfaces. Additionally, IT development will include creation of a comprehensive electronic infrastructure supporting forensic units with modern software solutions for real world conditions.
These slides are not interactive, but include screen shots of sample pages from various sections. This manual replaces the widely used "Manual of Fingerprint Development Techniques. The new manual has been implemented across all UK police forces. Others may access the electronic manual from sources such as here. New capabilities include civil database searches, a direct email interface still being developed , Next Generation Identification NGI interface capabilities, and much more.
Conducting Forensic Science Research Projects by Robert Ramotowski Presented at the International Association for Identification's IAI 99th International Educational Conference - August Topics addressed include effective planning, research, design, conduct, documentation and publication of forensic science research.
This presentation provides a brief overview of a selection of articles published since With over million fingerprint, face and iris biometric records. UIAI plans to collect as many as million multi-modal records. India's Unique Identification project is also known as Aadhaar, a word meaning "the foundation" in several Indian languages. Aadhaar is a voluntary program, with the ambitious goal of eventually providing reliable national ID documents for most of India's 1.
With a database larger than any other in the world, Aadhaar's ability to leverage automated fingerprint and iris technology enables rapid and reliable searching and identification impossible to accomplish with just fingerprint technology in such a large system, especially when searching children and elderly residents' biometric records. The Philosophy of Friction Ridge Examination Here is a link to other vimeo presentations Boyd has created.
Fingerprint Sourcebook - now available here. This is the sourcebook many of us have heard about and worked on in recent years. Access the page Free Executive Summary here. Report Description from the National Academies Press :. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application.
Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community.
The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration.
Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs.

This guidance has been updated and released as Fingerprint source book v2. PDF , KB , 9 pages. PDF , KB , 36 pages. PDF , 3. PDF , 4. PDF , 2. The Fingerprint Source Book was prepared as an internal reference document, drawing together all of the information held by the Home Office Centre for Applied Science and Technology CAST regarding internally managed experimental work on finger mark enhancement techniques. The preparation of the document was carried out in anticipation that supporting evidence would be required for validation of the techniques within the Manual of Fingerprint Development Techniques, as part of the ISO accreditation of the CAST forensic laboratories.
Because it provides the validation of the techniques contained within the manual, and hence the techniques used by police forces, it has become necessary for the document to be formally issued and controlled.
