Dynamic identity matching in response to threat levels
First Claim
1. A method in a computing system of identifying one or more persons of interest that may reflect the identity of an individual, comprising:
- receiving, by the computing system, identification information associated with an individual from a portable identification device;
receiving, by the computing system, environmental information, wherein the environmental information is indicative of a level of scrutiny that is to be applied to the received identification information for a location in which the portable identification device is operating;
identifying, by the computing system, a plurality of candidates by matching the received identification information with candidate information associated with each of the plurality of candidates;
generating, by the computing system, a candidate score for each of the plurality of identified candidates, the candidate score based on a comparison of the candidate information and the received identification information, and representing a likelihood that the identified candidate and the received identification information identify a same individual;
identifying, by the computing system, one or more of the plurality of candidates as persons of interest that may reflect the identity of the individual based on the generated candidate score and the received environmental information; and
causing, by the computing system, one or more of the identified persons of interest to be displayed, the number of persons of interest that are displayed being dependent on the level of scrutiny indicated by the environmental information.

Abstract
A dynamic identity matching facility that enables an operator to determine the status of an individual based on identification information contained on an identification record provided by the individual. The operator scans the individual'"'"'s identification information from the identification record using a scanning device. The facility decodes the scanned identification information and identifies a number of candidates based on the decoded identification information. For each identified candidate, the facility generates a candidate score. Based on the candidate score of each identified candidate, the facility selects a number of the identified candidates for display. The facility displays the selected candidates to the operator along with the candidate'"'"'s criminal or other acts.

22. A system for identifying one or more persons of interest that may reflect the identity of an individual, comprising:
-
a receiver configured to; receive identification information associated with an individual from a portable identification device; and receive environmental information, wherein the environmental information is indicative of a level of scrutiny that is to be applied to the received identification information for a location in which the portable identification device is operating; a processing component configured to; identify a plurality of candidates by matching the received identification information with candidate information associated with each of the plurality of candidates; generate a candidate score for each of the plurality of identified candidates, the candidate score based on a comparison of the candidate information and the received identification information, and representing a likelihood that the identified candidate and the received identification information identify a same individual; identify one or more of the plurality of candidates as persons of interest that may reflect the identity of the individual based on the generated candidate score and the received environmental information; and determine a number of identified persons of interest to be displayed dependent on the level of scrutiny indicated by the environmental information; and a display screen for displaying the determined number of the identified persons of interest. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42)

43. A portable system for identifying one or more persons of interest that may reflect the identity of an individual, comprising:
-
a receiving component configured to receive identification information associated with an individual and environmental information, wherein the environmental information is indicative of a level of scrutiny that is to be applied to the received identification information; a matching component configured to; identify information associated with one or more candidates, wherein the identified candidate information is similar to the received identification information; identify one or more candidates as persons of interest that may reflect the identity of the individual, wherein the identified persons of interest are based on the received environmental information and a comparison of the received identification information and the candidate information of each candidate; and determine a number of identified persons of interest to be displayed dependent on the level of scrutiny indicated by the environmental information; and a display component for displaying the determined number of the identified persons of interest. - View Dependent Claims (44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58)
