Abstract
Three techniques were tested for the visualization of latent fingerprintslaid ondifferent regionsof Canadian polymer bank notes. BVDA Gel-lifters, AccuTrans Casting Silicone Material and Natural1 IR fluorescent powder were tested to visualize fresh fingerprints on the banknotesof different denominations. All the techniqueswere found to show remarkable ridge details with clear visibility of minutiae in fresh fingerprints inthe three regionsof these bank notes which have different printing qualities.However,in the aged fingerprints the quality of ridge details was dependent on the technique used and the region of the bank notes.The Gel lifter and Natural IR1 powder showed promising results in all the three areas of different complexities.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
