Abstract

Statistics and biomedical informatics play a very important role in forensic sciences. Statistics can be regarded as the science of uncertainty. It is therefore natural that statistics should be applied to evidence used for legal purposes or the individual's identification as uncertainty is a feature of any legal or identification processes where decisions are based on upon the basis of evidence. Biomedical informatics is bringing new approaches how to handle genetic and other data supporting decision‐making processes. We will show the simultaneous application of statistical and biomedical informatics approaches in the field of forensic dentistry and for calculating weight‐of‐evidence for forensic DNA profiles.

The isotopic composition, for example, (14)C/(12)C, (13)C/(12)C, (2)H/(1)H, (15)N/(14)N and (18)O/(16)O, of the elements of matter is heterogeneous. It is ruled by physical, chemical and biological mechanisms. Isotopes can be employed to follow the fate of mineral and organic compounds during biogeo
