Automated Classification of Epiphyses in the Distal Radius and Ulna using a Support Vector Machine.

Journal of forensic sciences
The aim of this study was to automatically classify epiphyses in the distal radius and ulna using a support vector machine (SVM) and to examine the accuracy of the epiphyseal growth grades generated by the support vector machine. X-ray images of dist...

Comparing discriminant analysis and neural network for the determination of sex using femur head measurements.

Forensic science international
The measurement of the femoral head is usually considered an interesting variable for the sex determination of skeletal remains. To date, there are few published reference measurements of the femoral head in a modern European population for the purpo...

Sex estimation from the tarsal bones in a Portuguese sample: a machine learning approach.

International journal of legal medicine
Sex estimation is extremely important in the analysis of human remains as many of the subsequent biological parameters are sex specific (e.g., age at death, stature, and ancestry). When dealing with incomplete or fragmented remains, metric analysis o...

A study on sex prediction by using machine algorithms with anthropometric measurements of the seventh cervical vertebra.

Anthropologischer Anzeiger; Bericht uber die biologisch-anthropologische Literatur
Prediction of sex is among important topics of forensic medicine and forensic anthropology. In studies conducted for sex prediction, pelvis and cranium bones are the most preferred bones. In cases when it is difficult to examine the pelvis and craniu...

Sex-estimation method for three-dimensional shapes of the skull and skull parts using machine learning.

Forensic science international
Sex estimation is an indispensable test for identifying skeletal remains in the field of forensic anthropology. We developed a novel sex-estimation method for skulls and several parts of the skull using machine learning. A total of 240 skull shapes w...

Automatic adult age estimation using bone mineral density of proximal femur via deep learning.

Forensic science international
Accurate adult age estimation (AAE) is critical for forensic and anthropological applications, yet traditional methods relying on bone mineral density (BMD) face significant challenges due to biological variability and methodological limitations. Thi...

Age Estimation by Machine Learning and CT-Multiplanar Reformation of Cranial Sutures in Northern Chinese Han Adults.

Fa yi xue za zhi
OBJECTIVES: To establish age estimation models of northern Chinese Han adults using cranial suture images obtained by CT and multiplanar reformation (MPR), and to explore the applicability of cranial suture closure rule in age estimation of northern ...
