Biometrics Exploitation Science & Technology (BEST) Program
The Biometrics Exploitation Science and Technology (BEST) Program seeks to significantly advance the state-of-the-science for biometrics technologies. The overarching goals for the program are: 1) to significantly advance the Intelligence Community's (IC) ability to achieve high-confidence match performance, even when the features are derived from non-ideal data; and 2) to significantly relax the constraints currently required to acquire high fidelity biometric signatures.
