Applications

NSS and BEOS AutoIS (Automated Interview System) can be used to Screen interviewees for

• Crime (Murders, Rape, Theft, Fraud)
• Narcotics
• Poaching
  
• Radical training
• Smuggling
• Sentive Posts
• Illegal Immigration
• Plans to overstay
  

 Overview

In the recent years a lot of importance has been given to forensic tools to aid criminal investigation.

Any investigative technique being used needs to be fool proof, tamper proof, and with a sense of urgency needs to provide accurate results to aid investigations quickly.

Detection and Identification of information from suspects has become an important need in crime investigation. Neuro Signature System measures processes in the interviewees brain to detect presence of Knowledge of an event.

“Brain Electrical Oscillations Signature” (B.E.O.S.) Profiling opens a new chapter in search of innovations for extraction of information from the brain-mind. 

This is the first technique invented, which focuses on the presence of experientially knowledge acquired by a person, and differentiating experiential knowledge from conceptual knowledge.

The Interviewee is not presented with questions that need to be answered or responded. The Interviewee remains silent during the testing protocol.

The technique is based on his original finding that during awareness of past actions (autobiographical memory), the brain produces typical electrical oscillations, which form a 'Signature' of the awareness or process related to retrieval of experience.

Axxonet developed the software under license from Prof. C.R. Mukundan, who conceptualized and developed the electrophysiological algorithm of the relevant neural process. Axxonet also manufactures the hardware required for the application of the technology. The technology development comprised of development of Probe Designing Methods, equipments, control programs, signal processing and analyses programs, requiring invention of new methods.

Current Usage

NSS has helped investigators, providing them first hand information from the memory of a person to help understand if he or she was involved in a particular crime/incident, or if they were just witness to it. .

Validation

Extensive ecological validation studies and laboratory studies have already been completed which have validated the usefulness of the test for forensic and intelligence applications. 

The Government of India performed its own independant Validation study with over 110 subjects, and found the system provides a accuracy level of 95%.

Comparison to other techniques

NSS does not rely on the old P300 waveform technique which is a simple stimulus recognition test. To use P300 to detect presence of information would be akin to diagnose Malaria or Jaundice using a Thermometer.

The simplistic P300 waveform which is generated at about 300 milliseconds after the presentation of a stimulus to a subject, is only an indicator of registration of a stimulus by the brain, and cannot be used in complex criminal analysis scenarios, where memory and rememberance processes are analysed. P300 based simulation tests are routinely performed at the under grad and school level today, and any usage by justice or intelligence agencies should be validated first.

NSS is far superior to techniques depending on Autonomic measures like - GSR, ECG, Pulse, Blood Pressure, Respiration.

It is not based on simple variances in such measures, or neural network comparisons with a databank, which can be manupulated easily by the interviewee.

Current Users

Hundreds of cases have been solved using NSS. Some Government agencies using NSS currently are

• Police Forces
• Judicial System
  
• Intelligence Agenices
