## Abstract

A system and method in accordance with examples may include an identity verification kiosk. The identity verification kiosk may include a display comprising a user interface; a card reader; a document scanner; a printer; and a processor in data communication with a server and a database storing user information. The processor may be configured to receive an identification verification request from the user interface; receive user information via the document scanner or the card reader; retrieve user information from the database; verify the identity of a user; and print a unique identifier on a document using the printer.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system, comprising:
a processor; and
an imaging device, wherein
the processor receives image data from the imaging device and verifies an identity of a user based at least in part on the received image data,
the processor applies a predictive model to determine a marking location on a document of the user, and
the processor witnesses the document by marking a unique identifier at the marking location.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, further comprising a printer, wherein the printer prints the unique identifier at the marking location.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the unique identifier encodes information associated with at least one selected from a group consisting of a date the unique identifier was printed, a time the unique identifier was printed, and a location the unique identifier was printed.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, further comprising an input device comprising at least one selected from a group consisting of a document scanner, a card reader, and a fingerprint scanner,
wherein the processor receives user information from the input device, and
wherein the processor compares the received user information to previously received user information stored in a database.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, further comprising a fingerprint scanner, wherein
the processor receives a fingerprint associated with the user from the fingerprint scanner, and
the processor compares the received fingerprint with a previously received fingerprint stored in a database.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, wherein the document comprises at least one selected from a group consisting of a cashier's check and a certified check.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The system of claim 1, further comprising a document scanner,
wherein the document scanner scans the document after the printer prints the unique identifier.

### Claim 8

A non-transitory computer-accessible medium containing executable instructions, wherein, when executed by a computer hardware arrangement comprising a processor and an imaging device, and the computer hardware arrangement is configured to perform procedures comprising:
receiving image data from the imaging device and verifying an identity of a user based at least in part on the received image data,
applying a predictive model to determine a marking location on a document of the user, and
witnessing the document by marking a unique identifier at the marking location.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 8, wherein the predictive model is developed by machine learning using at least one algorithm selected from a group consisting of a gradient boosting machine algorithm, a logistic regression algorithm, and a neural network algorithm to develop the predictive model.

### Claim 10 (depends on 8)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 8, wherein the unique identifier comprises a computer-readable image and a timestamp.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 8, wherein the unique identifier comprises a non-sequential identifier.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 11, wherein the non-sequential identifier is pseudo-randomly generated.

### Claim 13 (depends on 8)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 8, the procedures further comprising:
collecting identification information associated with the user; and
collecting live biometric data associated with the user.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 13, the procedures further comprising:
receiving biometric information associated with the user from an identification document; and
comparing the document biometric information to the live biometric information.

### Claim 15 (depends on 13)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 13, wherein:
collecting live biometric data comprises receiving image data associated with the user's face, and
the procedures further comprise establishing a facial recognition fingerprint based on the image data associated with the user's face.

### Claim 16 (depends on 13)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 13, the procedures further comprises requesting a consent from the user to collect the identification information or biometric information associated with the user.

### Claim 17 (depends on 8)

The non-transitory computer-accessible medium of claim 8, the procedures further comprises printing the unique identifier at the marking location.

### Claim 18

A method, comprising:
receiving, by a processor, image data from an imaging device and verifying an identity of a user based at least in part on the received image data;
applying, by the processor, a predictive model to determine a marking location on a document of the user; and
witnessing, by the processor, the document by marking a unique identifier at the marking location.

### Claim 19 (depends on 18)

The method of claim 18, further comprising printing, by a printer, a unique identifier at the marking location.

### Claim 20 (depends on 18)

The method of claim 18, wherein the unique identifier encodes information associated with at least one selected from a group consisting of a date, a time, and a location the unique identifier was printed.

### Claim 21 (depends on 18)

The method of claim 18, further comprising:
receiving information associated with a previously printed unique identifier; and
determining a difference between the document and a previously marked document.
