Digital video images in forensic identification

The article discusses the modern possibilities and prospects for the development of technologies for automatic identification of a person by his video images. Some legal and technical aspects of the implementation of this technology are analyzed. Attention is drawn to the factors affecting the completeness and reliability of the display of human features captured on digital video images. An important place is occupied by the study of problems in extracting information from video recording tools, ways to eliminate them. The possibilities of using the information obtained from the means of video recording in the practice of disclosure and investigation of crimes are reflected. The practice of implementing hardware and software complexes in the Russian Federation and the Perm Region is investigated. The article describes the development of algorithms for machine image recognition that allow identification in automatic mode with a high level of accuracy and speed, searching through information arrays of digital photographs. The development of modern technologies makes it possible to use in practice an algorithm that allows recognizing not only a face, but also its emotional state, up to complex, composite emotions. This is of particular relevance in the prevention of terrorist acts.
