Use of pattern recognition and neural networks for non-metric sex diagnosis from lateral shape of calvarium: an innovative model for computer-aided diagnosis in forensic and physical anthropology.

International journal of legal medicine
Sex determination on skeletal remains is one of the most important diagnosis in forensic cases and in demographic studies on ancient populations. Our purpose is to realize an automatic operator-independent method to determine the sex from the bone sh...

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...

Deep learning-based sex estimation of 3D hyoid bone models in a Croatian population using adapted PointNet++ network.

Scientific reports
This study investigates a deep learning approach for sex estimation using 3D hyoid bone models derived from computed tomography (CT) scans of a Croatian population. We analyzed 202 hyoid samples (101 male, 101 female), converting CT-derived meshes in...

The role of the sacroiliac joint in sex estimation: Analysis of morphometry and variation types using machine learning techniques.

Legal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)
This study aimed to evaluate the potential of machine learning algorithms in sex estimation by going beyond the traditional two-dimensional (2D) measurements of the pelvic bone, predominantly preferred in sex prediction, by including measurement data...

Sex estimation based on mandibular measurements.

Anthropologischer Anzeiger; Bericht uber die biologisch-anthropologische Literatur
Medical imaging and machine learning are beneficial approaches in physical and forensic anthropology. They are particularly useful for the development of models for sex identification based on bone remains. The present study uses machine learning alg...

Utility of the morphometry of the maxillary sinuses for gender determination by using computed tomography.

Dental and medical problems
BACKGROUND: It is impossible to use the routine skeletal parts for gender identification if the skeleton of unknown human remains is obtained in a fragmented and incomplete state. The alternative is to use other parts of the skeleton for gender ident...
