Remote exam proctoring specialists Verificient Technologies has received a USPTO patent for its Proctortrack, which uses multi-modal sensing and data correlation to detect exam cheats.Verificient Technologies, which focuses on identity verification through the use of machine learning, facial recognition and biometrics, says the solution offers time and cost advantages over live human proctors.The system and methods include vision-based cues, audio cues, test data, and key-stroke patterns to reduce the number of false positives and negatives. Verificient says Proctortrack is the world's first automated remote proctoring solution.”We can continuously verify the identity of online test takers through 1,800 impressions per minute. It detects if the test taker is replaced, leaves the test, receives assistance from another people in the room, or opens up another browser,” says Tim Dutta, Verificient's CEO.So far, the technology has been implemented by institutions including Rutgers University, University of Southern California, St. George's Medical University (SGU), and 2U.Jon Modica, SGU Program Leader, said: “Verificient really went beyond our expectations. Their technology identified right away how students were cheating. Verificient is really the only proctoring system that has the level of security we can trust at our medical school.”
