ABSTRACT:
Thermal image data of at least a region of a face of a person is provided. The thermal image data is transformed to blood flow rate data and may be used to determine whether the person is deceptive or non-deceptive based on the blood flow rate data, e.g., deceptive with respect to an elicited response from the person.
