Research on adversarial identification methods for AI‐generated image software Craiyon V3
With the rapid development of diffusion models, AI generation technology can now generate very realistic images. If such AI‐generated images are used as evidence, they may threaten judicial fairness. Taking the adversarial identification of images generated by Craiyon V3 software...

Decision trees for estimating osteological sex from the skull using an expanded suite of...
Osteological sex estimation utilizing morphological traits of the skull primarily focuses on a set of five traits. Developing new models with an expanded suite of traits has the potential to increase sex classification accuracies and improve the classification of partial and frag...
Abuse of gabapentinoids in individuals with substance use disorders
The abuse of gabapentinoids has increased rapidly, and death cases have been reported with increasing rates. This study examines the toxicological analysis data of substance abuse cases conducted after legal regulations were implemented in Türkiye. The focus will be on the medico...
Human tissue oxygen and strontium isotope values in North America: A data compilation and...
The use of isotopic analysis for human mobility, geolocation, and forensic identification has become common over the past two decades, yet its effectiveness depends on the availability of well‐documented reference data. Many reference data exist in the literature, but the suitabi...
The application of decision trees for estimating osteological sex from common measurements...
Skull measurements are commonly evaluated for osteological sex estimation in forensic anthropology, and decision tree‐based classification models for the skull may improve accuracy compared to current metric methods. Additionally, decision trees can provide accurate sex classific...
Massive intramuscular hemorrhage of the tongue caused by hanging
Intramuscular hemorrhage of the tongue is frequently observed when the neck is compressed. Airway obstruction caused by massive hemorrhagic tongue edema has been reported. Herein, we report an autopsy case of massive intramuscular hemorrhage of the tongue caused by suicide via ha...

The grip of crime: Analyzing strangulation and asphyxiation typologies in homicide cases
Strangulation‐related homicides represent a complex and under‐researched form of violent crime, characterized by distinct behavioral and situational elements. The aim of the research was to identify perpetrator typologies in strangulation homicides and to analyze their relationsh...
A mathematical model for scientifically defining the class characteristics of the human...
Bitemark recognition reliability in forensics has been criticized for lacking objectivity and empirical support. Despite doubts about classifying these injuries as bitemarks, pattern injuries must still be legally documented and analyzed. Forensic odontology can benefit from aest...
Investigation of a Y‐chromosome screening approach for sexual assault evidence using the...
Following an alleged sexual assault, a victim may undergo a medical examination whereby internal or external bodily swabs may be collected and submitted to a forensic laboratory to be screened for the presence of semen. At Forensic Science SA (FSSA), this involves microscopic exa...
