Accurate assessment of the weight of evidence for DNA mixtures by integrating the likelihood ratio.

Forensic science international. Genetics - 1 Mar 2017

Slooten Klaas

Abstract excerpt

Several methods exist for weight of evidence calculations on DNA mixtures. Especially if dropout is a possibility, it may be difficult to estimate mixture specific parameters needed for the evaluation. For semi-continuous models, the LR for a person to have contributed to a mixture depends on the specified number of contributors and the probability of dropout for each. We show here that, for the semi-continuous...
