By now you should have a strong understanding of the history of intelligence in the U.S.; how the intelligence community functions; how intelligence is produced; and the role of local, state and the federal governments in intelligence activities. But, you may still be wondering where does all the information that these entities collect actually come from. And, just as importantly, how is this information obtained.
In lesson three, we learned about the intelligence process and used the Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA’s) five-phase cycle to examine the various steps. As you recall, in the process, phase two is the collection phase. We briefly also identified and defined the six basic sources of information. These are referred to as “intelligence collection disciples” or the “INTs”
1. Human Intelligence (HUMINT)
2. Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) derived from all communications intelligence (COMINT), electronic intelligence (ELINT), or foreign instrumentation signals intelligence (FISINT).
3. Imagery Intelligence (IMINT)
4. Measurement and Signatures Intelligence (MASINT)
5. Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT)
6. Geospatial intelligence (GEOINT)
These six disciplines are the sources of all the information that is collected to produce intelligence products. Remember, it is a bit of a misperception that secret “movie-like” missions collect all information. While it is true that some is indeed collected in the more classic “spy” type way; a great deal of information is collected by looking at sources that everyone can access.
For the purposes of this class, we will use the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI’s) explanations of the first five INTs, which include a high level discussion of which members of the IC use the those INTs. The description of the last INT, GEOINT, remains the same as lesson three and is provided by the CIA.
Human Intelligence (HUMINT) is the collection of information from human sources. The collection may be done openly. For example: when FBI agents interview witnesses or suspects, or it may be done through clandestine or covert means (espionage). Within the United States, HUMINT collection is the FBI’s responsibility. Beyond U.S. borders, HUMINT is generally collected by the CIA, but also by other U.S. components abroad.

Chapter 4 – Physical Evidence
Class Characteristics
When the characteristics of physical evidence are common to a group of objects or
persons, they may be termed class. Regardless of how thoroughly examined, such
evidence can be placed only into a broad category; an individual identification
cannot be made because there is a possibility of more than one source for the
evidence.
Individual Characteristics
Evidence with individual characteristics can be identified as originating with a
particular person or source.
Soil is the natural accumulation of earth materials, such as weathering rocks,
minerals, and decomposing plants, along with pollen.minerals, and decomposing plants, along with pollen.
1. Soil examinations can determine whether soils share a common
origin by comparing color, texture, and composition.
2. Although it is class characteristic evidence, the analysis of soil
evidence can help focus investigations and discredit alibis.
3. The pollen in soil or on plants and grass can also be very
significant in determining whether or not a suspect was at the scene.
Locating and Handling Soil Evidence
Soil evidence may be important when the suspect drives or walks on unpaved
areas, so that it is picked up by tire treads or the bottom of shoes and cuffs of
the pants. It may also be recovered in a number of other places, such as the
floor board of the subject's car or on articles in the trunk of his vehicle,
including shovels and blankets.
Preserving Shoe/Footwear Prints
Footwear prints may, or may not be readily visible. If they are not immediately
apparent, turn the lights off and search for them using a flashlight.
Comparing Shoe Print Evidence
SICAR is a software package which classifies, archives, and identifies shoe prints.
Preserving Footwear Impressions
As in the case with footwear prints, the location of footwear impressions should be
photographed as part of the general scene and then with a scale.
Preserving Shoe Impressions in Snow
Dental stone is also the preferred material for casting impressions in snow,
replacing the more difficult and time consuming process of using sulfur, which has to
be heated.
Photographs of footwear impressions at a crime scene
In the first photo only the impressions are shown
In a subsequent photo a ruler will be added to show sizes
Later casts will be made of the impressions
GLASS
Glass is important as physical evidence because of the frequency with which it is
encountered.
A. It is essential that the crime scene technician and investigator
understand the ways in which glass reacts to force.
B. Handling Glass Evidence
Tape should not be used to collect glass evidence and any processing for latent
prints is ordinarily done in the laboratory.
An important question often associated with motor vehicle accidents and hit-
and-run cases involves whether or not the lights of a suspect vehicle were and-run cases involves wheth.
Biometrics Iris Scanning: A Literature Review
The interest in Biometrics from both governments and industry has lead to the emergence of multiple Biometric technologies all with their own strengths and flaws. One currently at the forefront of Biometrics is iris scanning.
The process involved in the identification and verification of people using iris scanning is examined in this paper. The advantages and disadvantages associated with the utilisation of such a technology are also explored. A number of legal and ethical issues are highlighted. Iris scanning is looked at in comparison to other forms of Biometric technologies. Future work in the area of Biometrics is also considered in light of current developments.

Abstract
Ear biometric recognition is used in a lot of applications as person identification in
criminal cases, investigation, and security purpose. Feature optimization stage
has an important role for accuracy of correct recognition. Gabor filter have a
problem of high dimension and high redundancy. Sampling filter is a problem of
not reducing features optimum way. In the proposed Gabor feature extraction
technique the Gabor features are filtered using proposed mean filter and obtained
optimum features for ear biometric dataset.
Review of Detection & Recognition Techniques for 2D Ear Biometrics System
This document discusses ear biometrics for human identification. It begins by describing the three common methods of authentication: possession-based (e.g. IDs), knowledge-based (e.g. passwords), and biometric-based (e.g. fingerprints). It then focuses on ear biometrics, noting that ears have properties that make them suitable for identification like universality, uniqueness, and permanence. Several public ear image databases are described that can be used to test ear recognition algorithms. Detection and recognition techniques for 2D ear biometrics are then reviewed.

WAJIDBAIG
The document defines observation and discusses its importance in science. It provides context around:
1) Observation involves actively acquiring information through the senses or scientific instruments. It plays a key role in formulating hypotheses and testing them through experiments in the scientific method.
2) Observations need to be reproducible and comparable between observers, so measurement was developed to allow objective recording of observations.
3) Scientific instruments aid observation by translating phenomena into perceptible forms and reducing human biases, though the observer effect can still influence the process being observed.
Collections Care Through Visual Aids
Speakers: Ben Sullivan, Head of European Operations, KE Software and Mr David Smith, Collections Manager (Petrology, Ocean Bottom Deposits and
Building Stones) and Departmental Loans Manager, Mineralogy Department,
Natural History Museum
This presentation shows how collection data can be presented visually so that staff
and management can monitor the ongoing care of the collections. The visual aids help
justify to management and funding bodies about the need for good collections
care practices.

Petia Radeva discusses how lifelogging and wearable cameras can help improve health. Computer vision and deep learning techniques can be applied to extract useful information from large amounts of egocentric image data. Key information that can be derived includes what a person eats, where and with whom they eat, and how active they are. This type of quantified self-data has the potential to help manage health conditions like obesity, diabetes and migraines by identifying triggers and monitoring lifestyle factors and habits over time. Lifelogging also shows promise for cognitive treatment of patients with amnesia or mild cognitive impairment.
Biometrics system
The document discusses several biometric methods including palm print recognition, ear biometrics, and DNA biometrics. For palm print recognition, it describes how palm prints contain unique ridge characteristics similar to fingerprints and can be used for identification. It outlines the palm print recognition process including acquisition, preprocessing, feature extraction, matching, and database storage. For ear biometrics, it discusses different identification methods using ear photos, earmarks, and thermograms. DNA biometrics is described as using genetic analysis to identify individuals from biological samples and its use in forensic science, medical diagnosis, and establishing ancestry.
Report from QS europe 2013
This document contains summaries of various health tracking devices and apps presented at a Quantified Self conference on September 13, 2013.

It also mentions the Quantified Self Global Conference in October 2013 and seeks a Health 2.0 chapter co-head. Various references and resources are provided at the end about quantified self sensors, life logging, and the digital health revolution.
EYE TRACKING TECHNOLOGY
Eye tracking technology measures eye movements and gaze using cameras and light sources. It has various applications in research and product design. Eye trackers generally use infrared light and cameras to track the reflection of light sources off the eye to determine where a person is looking. Researchers can use eye tracking data to observe what stimuli capture people's attention and where their visual focus lies. The technology provides an unobtrusive way to understand how people interact with and process their environments.

The document outlines benefits for students, educators, and scientists of participating in citizen science. These include contributing to real research, increasing STEM interest, and expanding the scope of data collection. Steps for becoming a citizen scientist include finding a project of interest and learning required tools and methods.Reality As A Knowledge Medium
1) The document discusses using wearable sensors and augmented reality to capture expert experiences and knowledge and allow trainees to re-enact and experience those experiences.
2) Key aspects that are captured include gaze direction, videos, audio, gestures, physiological data, and positioning of the expert in an environment. This data is stored and synchronized to create an experience recording.
3) Trainees can then re-enact the expert's experience in real-time by having the expert's contextualized data augmented onto their own experience through methods like displaying the expert's position or where they were looking. This allows the trainee to experience the presence of the expert during tasks.
Electronic Surveillance
There have been research on the CCTV (closed circuit television) for safety purpose as an investigative tool. Using CCTV was associated with very significantly increased chance of crime have been solved for all crime types. Evidences like images are most likely used to catch the person who did the crime, the usefulness of CCTV is limited by several factors ,mostly the public areas are not covered .This research paper is on all about how CCTV has been useful for humans for secure and safety purpose. Electronic Surveillance features of society globally , this paper also focus on healthcare context. This paper is based on what I have researched while searching topic on Electronics Surveillance.

The document defines observation and discusses its importance in science. It provides context around:
1) Observation involves actively acquiring information through the senses or scientific instruments. It plays a key role in formulating hypotheses and testing them through experiments in the scientific method.
2) Observations need to be reproducible and comparable between observers, so measurement was developed to allow objective recording of observations.
3) Scientific instruments aid observation by translating phenomena into perceptible forms and reducing human biases, though the observer effect can still influence the process being observed.

Petia Radeva discusses how lifelogging and wearable cameras can help improve health. Computer vision and deep learning techniques can be applied to extract useful information from large amounts of egocentric image data. Key information that can be derived includes what a person eats, where and with whom they eat, and how active they are. This type of quantified self-data has the potential to help manage health conditions like obesity, diabetes and migraines by identifying triggers and monitoring lifestyle factors and habits over time. Lifelogging also shows promise for cognitive treatment of patients with amnesia or mild cognitive impairment.
Biometrics system
The document discusses several biometric methods including palm print recognition, ear biometrics, and DNA biometrics. For palm print recognition, it describes how palm prints contain unique ridge characteristics similar to fingerprints and can be used for identification. It outlines the palm print recognition process including acquisition, preprocessing, feature extraction, matching, and database storage. For ear biometrics, it discusses different identification methods using ear photos, earmarks, and thermograms. DNA biometrics is described as using genetic analysis to identify individuals from biological samples and its use in forensic science, medical diagnosis, and establishing ancestry.

EYE TRACKING TECHNOLOGY
Eye tracking technology measures eye movements and gaze using cameras and light sources. It has various applications in research and product design. Eye trackers generally use infrared light and cameras to track the reflection of light sources off the eye to determine where a person is looking. Researchers can use eye tracking data to observe what stimuli capture people's attention and where their visual focus lies. The technology provides an unobtrusive way to understand how people interact with and process their environments.

These include contributing to real research, increasing STEM interest, and expanding the scope of data collection. Steps for becoming a citizen scientist include finding a project of interest and learning required tools and methods.Reality As A Knowledge Medium
1) The document discusses using wearable sensors and augmented reality to capture expert experiences and knowledge and allow trainees to re-enact and experience those experiences.
2) Key aspects that are captured include gaze direction, videos, audio, gestures, physiological data, and positioning of the expert in an environment. This data is stored and synchronized to create an experience recording.
3) Trainees can then re-enact the expert's experience in real-time by having the expert's contextualized data augmented onto their own experience through methods like displaying the expert's position or where they were looking. This allows the trainee to experience the presence of the expert during tasks.
Electronic Surveillance
There have been research on the CCTV (closed circuit television) for safety purpose as an investigative tool. Using CCTV was associated with very significantly increased chance of crime have been solved for all crime types. Evidences like images are most likely used to catch the person who did the crime, the usefulness of CCTV is limited by several factors ,mostly the public areas are not covered .This research paper is on all about how CCTV has been useful for humans for secure and safety purpose.

EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
