The analogy between DNA kinship and DNA mixture evaluation, with applications for the interpretation of likelihood ratios produced by possibly imperfect models.

Forensic science international. Genetics - 1 May 2021

Slooten Klaas

Abstract excerpt

Two main applications of forensic DNA analysis are the investigation of possible relatedness and the investigation whether a person left DNA in a trace. Both of these are usually carried out by the calculation of likelihood ratios. In the kinship case, it is standard to let the likelihood ratio express the support in favour of the investigated relatedness versus no relatedness, and in the investigation of traces,...
