Bayesian framework for the evaluation of fibre transfer evidence
1Institut de Police Scientifique et de Criminologie, University of Lausanne, Switzerland.
Abstract:
The application of the likelihood ratio, derived in a Bayesian framework, to different case scenarios involving fibre evidence has permitted the authors to identify and evaluate the dominant parameters and their effect on the likelihood ratio. Moreover, it has been emphasized that these parameters are not only defined by the conditions of the contact, but also by the strategy chosen by the defence.
