Sex determination from the pubis by discriminant function analysis
Forensic Science International, 1995A total of 122 adult human pubes (66 males and 56 females) are used in this study of a discriminant function analysis for determining sex from four pubic measurements: the angle formed by the middle line of the superior ramus and inferior ramus of pubis (in degrees, X1), subpubic angle (in degrees, X2), the minimum distance from the symphyseal surface ...

Sex determination of a Tunisian population by CT scan analysis of the skull
International Journal of Legal Medicine, 2017It is widely accepted that the estimation of biological attributes in the human skeleton is more accurate when population-specific standards are applied. With the shortage of such data for contemporary North African populations, it is duly required to establish population-specific standards.

Ancestral state reconstruction analysis of hymenopteran sex determination mechanisms
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2009AbstractWe provide the first phylogenetic evidence supporting complementary sex determination (CSD) as the ancestral mechanism for haplodiploidy in the Hymenoptera. It is currently not possible, however, to distinguish the evolutionary polarity of single locus (sl) CSD and multiple‐locus (ml) CSD given the available data.

Determination of Sex by Discriminant Function Analysis of Postcranial Skeletal Measurements
Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1979Abstract Techniques for accurately determining the sex of skeletal material are invaluable to workers concerned with the identification of human remains. Well-known methods that have been employed include traditional qualitative evaluations of morphological characteristics and statistical analyses of metrical data [1–10].

Sex determination from the sternal end of the rib by osteometric analysis
Legal Medicine, 2003The aim of this study was to establish a sample group of Turkish population to determine sex from the sternal end of the ribs. Sex determination from the human skeleton bones is a simple and specific method.The specimens consisted of right fourth (4th) ribs of 78 females and 173 males of known age, sex and race during 1994-1997 in Izmir, Turkey.

Sex Determination from the Talus of Koreans by Discriminant Function Analysis*
Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2011Abstract: The aims of this study were to investigate the sex discriminating potential of the talus in Koreans and compare this with other analyses in different populations. Statistical analyses were performed using data from nine measurements acquired from 140 tali (70 men, 70 women). The talus of Koreans is dimorphic between sexes in all measurements

Sex Determination by Discriminant Function Analysis of Lateral Radiographic Cephalometry
Journal of Forensic Sciences, 1996Abstract The present work is an attempt to develop a new method to determine sex from the skull with lateral radiographic cephalometry and discriminant function analysis. The superciliary ridges, frontal sinuses, external occipital protuberance, and mastoid processes were adopted as objects of lateral radiographic cephalometric ...

Sex determination problems in forensic genetic analysis
Forensic Science International: Genetics Supplement Series, 2013Abstract Sex determination is important in forensic cases of missing persons, rape or to establish the sexual identity. There are molecular tools to determine the sex such as the simultaneous quantification of autosomal DNA and Y chromosome and the typification of amelogenin and Y chromosome markers but do not always yield accurate data on the ...

Sex determination of Australian Aboriginal skulls by discriminant function analysis
Australian Dental Journal, 1982Abstract— The technique of discriminant function analysis was applied to determine the sex of Australian Aboriginal skulls using data derived from standardized roentgenograms. Even when only a few well‐defined landmarks were included, the functions, representing linear combinations of cranial variables, provided good discrimination.

Sex determination from calcaneus in Korean using discriminant analysis
Forensic Science International, 2013The calcaneus can be used for the differentiation of sex and populations using discriminant function equations. This bone has been used for sex determination in some population groups, but it has not been used for sex determination in Koreans until now.
