3.2. What is ALPR? Automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) is a mass surveillance method that uses optical character recognition (OCR) to automatically identify the license number plate in an image or video. By providing the OCR with the correct search criteria you need to train it. To train the OCR means to get enough positive and negative images of the object you want to identify. The training involves in to an Extensible Markup Language (XML) that can be used to identify die object in the image

With different basis, companies have various methods to do bookkeeping. Two methods mentioned in this paper are cash-flow basis and accrual basis accounting. Although both methods are applied to record accounting transactions, they vary two major aspects: timing of recognition and matching principles.
to guide accountants in their work of preparing and standardizing the financial statements such as income statements, balance sheet, and cash flow statements. This is important because investors rely on these statements to make their investment decisions. GAAP aids in the preparation of statements that reflect the economic reality making the financial statements comparable and easy to understand. For financial information to be useful to the users, GAAP requires the used information to be consistent

Biometric identification is a way to identify someone by using fingerprints, facial recognition, DNA, irises, voice patterns, and palmprints. Fingerprints are seen in many movies and tv shows as a way to get into classified areas and get classified information. Fingerprint Identification is an impression of the friction ridges of all or any part of the finger that is cataloged on paper or electronically and can be used when crime scene investigators to identify the killer. Pros for fingerprint identification
Abstract Research methods are procedures used for gathering information. The information observed is individual or aggregate data on a phenomenon. Traditionally, there are wide ranges of research methods in criminal justice. The most commonly used are survey methods and data analysis. According to Kleck et al; (2006) “survey research is the dominant method of collecting information followed by use of archived data.’’ Furthermore, the most important sources of crime information in U.S criminal
Revenue Recognition Model Introduction The revenue recognition principle is vital in accounting since it helps in the determination of an accounting period as well as assessing the types of revenues and expenses that ought to be realized in an accounting period (Collings, 2015). This principle state that revenues are only recognized when they have been earned or when they are recognized or recognizable regardless of whether the cash has been received (Camfferman & Zeff, 2015). This is in contrast
reasonable person will disappear due to the degree of individualisation and the standard becomes obsolete (Nourse, 2008). Often, courts will equal reasonable with normal which can cause complications (Moran, 2010). Moran (2010) uses the example of the decision of the Australian High Court in McHale v Watson where she argues that judges have a higher tolerance for wrongdoing in children, and especially boys, because they identify carelessness as “boys will be boys” (Moran, 2010). In this case, a 12 year
The Evolution of Voice Recognition Over the recent years, voice recognition has gained acclaim in the world of forensics and has been a key factor in the resolution of many crimes. In the article, “The high-tech hunt for James Foley’s killer” (Rutkin, 2014) the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Scotland Yard used the advancing technology to seek and pursue the man that executed the renowned journalist. James Foley was an American journalist who was murdered by the group commonly known as ISIS
Face recognition technology [1] is the least intrusive and fastest biometric technology. It works with the most obvious individual identifier – the human face. Instead of requiring people to place their hand on a reader (a process not acceptable in some cultures as well as being a source of illness transfer) or precisely position their eye in front of a scanner, face recognition systems unobtrusively take pictures of people 's faces as they enter a defined area. There is no intrusion or delay, and
Face recognition process of identifying or verifying individual person by their face. one of the most important sources of the information is human face which can be intended for personal verification and identification of individual person.Wrinkles play an essential role in the face-based analysis. They have been widely used in applications, such as face age estimation, facial retouching and facial expression recognition. Facial wrinkles are 3D features of skin and appear as skillful discontinuities
Abstract— Face recognition is one of the most important biometric and face image is a biometrics physical feature use to identify people. Major and Minor segments of face space are eyes, nose and mouth. In biometrics quality face is the most imperative characteristic method for recognize individuals. High intra-class variety inside face pictures of the same individual is the significant issue in face distinguishment. Posture, statement and enlightenment are in charge of high intra-class variety
Fingerprinting is method based on the uniqueness of the skin pattern - that is, each person has a completely individual pattern of papillary lines. These patterns do not change throughout life and have the property of recovering from damage to the skin in its previous form. On the one hand, this method almost completely eliminates the mistake, and on the other hand it is very cheap and easy to use (in contrast the method of identification of a person by DNA). Fingerprinting allows: 1) to identify
Gait Recognition is an Biometric Feature which has attracted many researchers in recent years. Gait recognition is a task to identify or verify individuals by the way they walk. In Video Surveillance based application identifying the Human gait is important because it captures the human from a distance[1]. Gait Recognition have advantages like Unobtrusiveness, other is that without knowledge of a person his gait can be captured and also high quality of videos are not required. Gait Recognition approaches
traits that can be used to recognize people at a distance. Therefore, this trait is very appropriate in surveillance scenarios. Most gait recognition algorithms attempt to extract the human silhouette in order to derive the gait variables. Hence, the selection of a good model to represent the human body is pivotal to the efficient functioning of a gait recognition system. However, the gait of an individual is affected by footwear, clothing, affliction of the legs, or walking surface. Walking is a
Fingerprint recognition refers to the automated process of verifying a match between human fingerprints. Fingerprints are one of the types of biometrics used for identifying individuals and verify their identity. The analysis and study of fingerprints for matching generally requires the comparison of several features of the fingerprint pattern. These include patterns, which are characteristics of ridges and minutia points, which are unique features found within the fingerprint patterns. It is

Henry Mintzberg structural contingency model and Lee Bowman and Terrence Deal organizational theory are used and are applied to executive behind focusing on the executive level is twofold: First, it is where final critical decisions were made, and second, military operations cannot take place without an executive
Introduction In Julia Angwin’s article “Meet the Online Tracking Device That is Virtually Impossible to Block,” a new web tracking mechanism known as canvas fingerprinting is discussed. Canvas fingerprinting is the act of instructing a web browser to draw a hidden image to track a user. When a web browser draws the hidden image, there are small differences between other web browsers that have drawn the image. In conjunction with assessing the differences in the image rendered, companies can also
