Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hearing loss is a poignant issue in many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and, without sufficient support, it can also contribute to disabling life experiences. The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is intended to provide support to eligible people experiencing disability, however, to effectively serve this ...

Hyperspectral classification of blood-like substances using machine learning methods combined with genetic algorithms in transductive and inductive scenarios [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 This study is focused on applying genetic algorithms (GA) to model and band selection in hyperspectral image classification. We use a forensic-inspired data set of seven hyperspectral images with blood and five visually similar substances to test GA-optimised classifiers in two scenarios: when the training and test data come from the same image and ...

Analysis &Sensing, EarlyView.Sensor design increasingly focusses on miniaturized systems deployed directly at the point of need. For this purpose, microfluidics ensures low‐cost systems that can handle small sample volumes and molecularly imprinted polymers provide rugged, cost‐effective recognition.

A Spectral Graph Approach to Discovering Genetic Ancestry [PDF]
Annals of Applied Statistics, 4(1), 179-201, 2010, 2009 Mapping human genetic variation is fundamentally interesting in fields such as anthropology and forensic inference. At the same time patterns of genetic diversity confound efforts to determine the genetic basis of complex disease. Due to technological advances it is now possible to measure hundreds of thousands of genetic variants per individual across

A central limit theorem concerning uncertainty in estimates of individual admixture [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 The concept of individual admixture (IA) assumes that the genome of individuals is composed of alleles inherited from $K$ ancestral populations. Each copy of each allele has the same chance $q_k$ to originate from population $k$, and together with the allele frequencies $p$ in all populations at all $M$ markers, comprises the admixture model.

A nonparametric Bayesian approach to the rare type match problem
, 2022 The "rare type match problem" is the situation in which the suspect's DNA profile, matching the DNA profile of the crime stain, is not in the database of reference.

A Needle in a Haystack: Landscape Survey and Archaeological Detection Experiments in Apalachee Bay
Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper presents the results of a pilot landscape‐scale seismic survey undertaken in Apalachee Bay, Florida, across a submerged landscape that contains dozens of Pre‐Contact sites. In addition to the goals of improving the geophysical and remote sensing ground model for this submerged landscape, the survey also sought to undertake the first

Genetic structure of Sino-Tibetan populations revealed by forensic STR loci [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 The origin and diversification of Sino-Tibetan populations have been a long-standing hot debate. However, the limited genetic information of Tibetan populations keeps this topic far from clear. In the present study, we genotyped 15 forensic autosomal STRs from 803 unrelated Tibetan individuals from Gansu Province (635 from Gannan and 168 from Tianzhu).
