Technological evaluation of two AFIS systems [PDF]
IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine, 2005 This paper provides a technological evaluation of two Automatic Fingerprint Identification Systems (AFIS) used in forensic applications. Both of them are installed and working in Spanish police premises. The first one is a Printrak AFIS 2000 system with a database of more than 450,000 fingerprints, while the second one is a NEC AFIS 21 SAID NT-LEXS ...
