Previously, adding minutiae and creating/erasing matches were not working as expected.

Bug Fixes

[BF-001][BESTW-1723] Blocking zoom input while enumerate is selected.

While on Free Hand tool, the user can select the enumerate option, which locks the zoom and the pan. But the zoom input on the footer was not getting blocked, and this task fixes it.

Setup:

On server’s config.properties:

  • Type/Range: Integer;
  • Path: settings table of sphinx database;
  • Default: 550;
  • Required: Yes

New Features

[IF-001][BESTW-1720][CNF] Boosted user experience with continuous app access.

This update improved user experience by maintaining seamless app access. Now, users can stay logged in while actively engaging with the application within a specified timeframe, as determined by the session.expirationTime.server variable in config.properties.

To enable this feature, configure the session.expirationTime.server variable using the format <number><unit>, where the unit can be “s” for seconds, “m” for minutes, or “h” for hours. For instance, set it as “3600s” to establish a 1-hour idle period.

[NF-002][BESTW-1708][UI][CHG]: New minutiae deletion tool in case report editor.

In this update, we introduce a powerful new feature to the case report editor: a dedicated tool that allows users to erase all minutiae from either a latent or a candidate with ease.

If users prefer to work with keyboard shortcuts, we’ve made it convenient for them to execute these commands efficiently:

  • EDIT: Previously “S”, now it is “A”;
  • ERASER: Previously “A”, now it is “S”;
  • ERASE ALL MINUTIAE FROM LATENT: It is “D”;
  • ERASE ALL MINUTIAE FROM CANDIDATE: It is “F”;
  • RULER VISIBILITY: Previously “D”, now it is “G”;
  • SYNCED ZOOM: Previously “F”, now it is “H”;

[NF-003][BESTW-1714][CHG]: Automatic image resolution tolerance.

Images may sometimes have their resolution registered incorrectly. To address this issue, we’ve introduced a new configuration setting called resolution.tolerance. If an image is received with a resolution value that matches the one specified in the resolution.tolerance configuration, it will be automatically converted to a standard resolution of 500 dpi for consistency.

[NF-004][BESTW-1709][UI]: Image rotation in free hand mode.

We’re introducing image rotation to the free hand operation. When users access the free hand mode during a search, they now have the ability to rotate both candidate and latent images, providing greater flexibility and control in the process.

[NF-005][BESTW-1706][UI]: Minutiae deletion with click-and-drag eraser.

In this update, we’re making it easier for users to delete multiple minutiae. Now, with the eraser tool active, you can simply click and move the mouse to delete minutiae in one smooth motion. This enhancement simplifies the process and allows for efficient editing of minutiae with a click-and-drag action.

Improvements

[IP-001][BEST-1701][UI][CHG] Searches list now displays creation timestamp.

This update brings a significant improvement to the searches list by introducing a new column, “Created at.” This column now displays the creation timestamp of each search, providing users with valuable information about when a specific search was initially created.

When a user hovers their mouse over it, the complete timestamp, including both date and time, will be displayed.

  • Database: Compatible with the dump found in the release folder

MD5 Checksum: 0404d5e600268d2650f95fb6aa5923c1

Improvements

[IP-001][BESTW-1696] Temporarily saves a video file with a temporary name.

Now when a video file is uploaded, BEST will save it with a temporary name, adding the suffix “incomplete_<video_file_name>”. After finishing the upload, the file will be renamed to the original name.

Bug Fixes

[BF-001][BESTW-1695] An user can now visualize cases as a participant expert even if it belongs to another organization.

If an user from one organization added to case another user from another organization as a participant expert, the other user could not visualize the case in the case list, nor access it directly and read its content.

With this bug fix, the case list search now has the following behavior:

  • If filtering by cases where the user is the owner, the search will not verify labels.
  • If filtering by cases where the user is a participant expert, the search will not verify labels.
  • If filtering by all cases, the search will verify label.

[BF-002][BESTW-1694] Move to the next enqueued video if current video analysis fails

Before fixing this issue, if faceservice raised an error during the analysis of a video, BEST got stuck polling the status from the same video, that wouldn’t change. Now if there’s another video in the processing queue, BEST will start analyzing the next one and stop polling the previous.

New Features

[NF-001][WEB-358][CNF][OPT] Simultaneous login.

With this feature it’s not possible to have the same profile logged more than once in the same application. If an user is already logged and another access happens, using its username and password, the user with the oldest access will be warned and logged out in their next action.

[NF-002][BESTW-1627][BESTW-1628][BESTW-1630][UI] Change password.

Users now can change their password after logged in. In order to do that, the user must click the option “Change password” from the dropdown with their username in the top-right of the application.

After the new password is accepted, the user is automatically returned to the previous page.

[NF-003][BESTW-1641][CNF][OPT] Forgot password.

Users now have a new option at login screen that they can reset their password if it was forgotten. After clicking on it, they must inform their username and they will receive an e-mail with a temporary code. After typing the code successfully, they can type a new password, following the rules described in the screen.

Users now will be informed that they are attempting to access the application from a new browser if they change the browser they are accessing it. They must return to the previous browser or authenticate the new one, revoking the access from the previous browser. To authenticate the new browser, they must type a code received in their e-mail correctly.

Improvements

[IP-001][CNF][CHG] The maximum number of login attempts is now based in a database value.

Previously the maximum number of login attempts was fixed in 5. Now it uses the value from a database row. If the value does not exist, the fallback will be the previous value (5 attempts).

[IP-002][BESTW-1636][UI] Improved BEST video upload status feedback to user.

Users now are aware that the application is processing a video during fragment imports and search executions.

[BF-002]: Create face or iris fragment correctly without calibrating the image first.

There was an issue that a face or iris fragment could be lost if it was created faster than the image was calibrated automatically. Now the application makes sure that the image was calibrated automatically before creating the fragment.
