Identification of diatom taxonomy by a combination of region-based full convolutional network, online hard example mining, and shape priors of diatoms

Artificial Intelligence and Forensic Genetics: Current Applications and Future Perspectives

“…Other experimental papers have explored the challenging field of definition of the cause of death: in rare cases, it can be difficult to define the manner of death and AI could be helpful. For example, in cases of drowning, several research papers have focused on the application of AI in automating diatom testing, with the aim of achieving higher levels of efficiency and accuracy in the definition of the exact cause of death [11,[28][29][30][31][32][33]. Other authors have tried to apply AI in the evaluation of firearm lesions, demonstrating that digitizing and analyzing the fired projectile specimens could be used for firearm identification [34].…”
