Systems and methods for biometric information automation
First Claim
1. A method of identifying persons based on biometric information, comprising:
- providing a cache of biometric templates, the cache storing segments of the biometric templates associated with biometric features contained in the segments;
receiving a sample biometric template to be identified;
dividing the sample biometric template into jobs based on the biometric features contained in the sample biometric template;
comparing the jobs to the segments corresponding to the biometric features of the sample biometric template to determine candidate biometric templates associated with the segments that match the jobs; and
generating a candidates list identifying the candidate biometric templates and entities related to the candidate biometric templates.

Abstract
A method identifies persons based on biometric information. The method includes providing a cache of biometric templates. The cache stores segments of the biometric templates associated with biometric features contained in the segments. The method also includes receiving a sample biometric template to be identified; dividing the sample biometric template into jobs based on the biometric features contained in the sample biometric template; comparing the jobs to the segments corresponding to the biometric features of the sample biometric template to determine candidate biometric templates associated with the segments that match the jobs; and generating a candidates list identifying the candidate biometric templates and entities related to the candidate biometric templates.
