Systems and methods for validation of a media object may include receiving the media object and detecting, using a sensor, a damaged portion of the media object. The media object may be validated against a standard. During the validation of the media object, the damaged portion of the media object may be given less weight.

A banknote sorting apparatus and a control method therefor are provided. The control method for the banknote sorting apparatus includes: obtaining a characteristic value of a standard template, wherein the standard template is a preset banknote template satisfying a set condition, and the characteristic value is a characteristic value for banknote classification; and displaying the characteristic value and an original sorting parameter corresponding to the characteristic value, wherein the original sorting parameter is a sorting parameter preset in the banknote sorting apparatus.

A banknote image processing device of the present disclosure includes a storage unit and a processor, the storage unit stores an image of a normal banknote therein, and the processor performs pseudo-damage processing that imitates damage caused on the normal banknote, on the image.

A device and a system for detecting a tape or a piece of glue on a document and methods for detecting a tape or a piece of glue on a document are described. The device comprises at least one light source, at least one light receiver and at least one light barrier. The at least one light source is arranged on a first side of the at least one light barrier and the at least one light receiver is arranged on a second side of the at least one light barrier opposite to the first side. The light barrier is configured to come into contact with a document to prevent or reduce light emitted from the light source on the first side of the light barrier to be transmitted to the light receiver on the second side of the light barrier.

A method and apparatus for evaluating the fitness of an object based on determination of a measure of permeability of the object, including positioning the object between a fluid source and a gasochromic material, dispensing a fluid from the fluid source towards the object such that at least a portion of the fluid flows through the object and contacts the gasochromic material, exciting the gasochromic material with an excitation source such that an emission of the gasochromic material is in response to the excitation source and the fluid, detecting the emission from the gasochromic material to determine the permeability of the object, and evaluating the fitness of the object based on the determination of the permeability of the object. The gasochromic material may also be included in the object.

A method is described for checking a value document, wherein measuring values of the value document are detected in spatially resolved fashion. The measuring value detected in the respective measuring point is allocated to a node corresponding to this measuring point, and a two-dimensional network of nodes is formed therefrom. A network is formed from the two-dimensional network of the nodes and a source node and a sink node. By means of the maximally possible flow through the network, the value document is classified as suspected of forgery or not suspected of forgery. The maximally possible flow through the network is a measure for the degree of probability of the value document having a continuous object along a direction transverse to the direction of the network, said object indicating a manipulation of the value document, such as e.g. an adhesive strip or a separating line of a composed forgery.
