Demands for Security are Staggering
Yesterday a fingerprint on a police index card or a passport at border control was enough.
Today, searching for a person’s identity in a huge and growing database using a single biometric isn’t good enough. Combining multiple biometrics in a single search – multi-modal fusion – provides the accuracy needed to reduce security anxiety.
Many people think that today’s technology can’t deliver. WCC’s technology can! It delivers the best identity matches by using multi-modal fusion across biometric and biographic data.
WCC’s technology is an extremely fast, scalable, vendor-neutral platform for score-level multi-modal fusion. It easily incorporates multiple biometrics and biographic criteria, to achieve the best identity matching, for border control, criminal investigations, disaster recovery or enrollment verification.

ELISE ID - The Platform for Multi-Modal Fusion
ELISE ID optimizes identity searching to provide the best possible match, regardless of the biometrics used or the number of biographic criteria. Rather than using yesterday’s Boolean search techniques that only consider “black-white/true-false”, it uses advanced technologies to calculate similarities and report shades of grey to rank results by the aggregated match scores from each criterion.
This granular approach makes true score-level fusion for biometrics possible – today! It also allows for the fusion of match scores across domains: biometrics and biographic criteria combined!
What Makes ELISE ID Special
| |
> |
Application of fuzzy logic to each criterion
Calculates similarities through a linear exhaustive search – leaves no stone unturned!
|
| |
> |
Differential weighting of each criterion
You decide which criteria are most important
|
| |
> |
Integration of new matching algorithms
Avoid technology lock-in or obsolescence with a platform that can easily incorporate biometric innovations
|
| |
> |
True score level fusion
Scores on each biometric are combined according to industry best practices for the most accurate biometric match results
|
| |
> |
Use of metadata to enhance scoring
Match results can optionally be influenced by metadata such as the type of biometric used, the agency gathering the data, the date the biometric template was obtained, etc.
|
| |
> |
Appropriate treatment of missing data
Boolean systems don’t handle missing data – it’s always read as “false”. ELISE ID elegantly handles missing data, allowing the integration of disparate databases
|
| |
> |
Analytics to understand match scores and result ranking
Need to understand why a particular result ranked as it did? ELISE ID makes it easy to see the details
|
ELISE ID Can be Used in
| |
> |
Border control
Fuse scores from multiple biometrics and biographic data to enforce watch lists. Identify duplicate identities for visas or border crossings. Identify shipments that demand further scrutiny
|
| |
> |
Criminal investigation
Identify criminals from biometrics and biographic criteria. Identify victims from DNA and other biometric or biographic criteria. Identify stolen objects. Find similar modus operandi
|
| |
> |
Disaster recovery / missing persons
Identify disaster victims or missing persons from DNA and other biometric or biographic data
|
| |
> |
Enrollment verification
Quickly eliminate fraudulent duplicates during the biometric enrollment process
|
| |
> |
Healthcare
Identify patients to ensure appropriate treatment, medication, or use of personal data through the use of biometric and/or biographic data
