Methods and systems are provided for analyzing and assessing documents using a writing profile for documents, such as a payment instrument. A method may include providing a document to a computer system. In an embodiment, the method may further include comparing writing in one or more non-signature information fields of the document to at least one forger writing profile representation. In some embodiments, at least one forger writing profile representation may be obtained from at least one non-signature information field of at least one document that includes forged information. In an embodiment, the document may be identified as a document including forged information from an approximate match of at least one forger writing profile representation with writing in the document.

Systems and methods for identifying a document with forged information in non-signature information fields

Techniques are described for enhancing a hearing assist device using one or more coprocessor devices. The hearing assist device uses a handshaking protocol to detect and pair with the one or more coprocessor devices. The hearing assist device is capable of stand-alone signal processing in the absence of the coprocessor devices. In one embodiment, the hearing assist device directs processing of a signal to the coprocessor device when the coprocessor is detected. In another embodiment, the hearing assist device detects a coprocessor device and uses the coprocessor device to supplement signal processing performed by the hearing assist device. In yet another embodiment, the hearing assist device communicates with a plurality of coprocessor devices and the work of processing the signal is shared amongst the devices according to a respective functionality of each device.
