Facial Image Analysis and Facial Image Identification as a Classic Field of Forensics

doi: 10.32577/mr.2023.3.9

Abstract

Facial image analysis and identification are one of the most dynamically developing forensic fields of our time. This study aims to draw parallels between facial image identification and the so-called classic forensic expert fields. The classic fields of forensic expertise, the so-called pattern recognition methods, like latent print comparison or tool mark comparison, are not part of any science, the expert performs a visual comparison of image patterns, based on the ACE-V methodology. According to our thesis, the facial image identification analyzer works similarly.
