False negative probability in iGSR detection: a Bayesian approach [PDF]
This article discusses the detection of inorganic gunshot residue (iGSR) particles through scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (SEM/EDS) in the discovery step. We calculated the probability that all characteristic inorganic gunshot residue particles (iGSR) go undetected and their dependence on the image pixel ...
