Forensic Science International: Synergy 

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors describe a paradigm shift in which existing methods are replaced by methods based on relevant data, quantitative measurements, and statistical models; methods that are transparent and reproducible, are intrinsically resistant to cognitive bias, use the logically correct framework for interpretation of evidence (the likelihood-ratio framework), and are empirically validated under casework conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper , a decision analysis study was conducted to assess the performance of qualified firearms examiners working in accredited laboratories in the United States in terms of accuracy (error rate), repeatability, and reproducibility of decisions involving comparisons of fired bullets and cartridge cases.

TL;DR: The Structural Vulnerability Profile (SVP) as discussed by the authors has been proposed to examine and assess skeletal/dental biomarkers indicative of embodied social inequity, the lived experiences of social marginalization that can get 'under the skin' to leave hard-tissue traces.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors proposed a hierarchical explainable forensics algorithm that incorporates humans in the detection loop and used an ensemble of standard and attention-based data-augmented detection networks.

TL;DR: This paper examined the impact of inconclusives on error rates from three statistical perspectives: (a) an ideal perspective using objective measurements combined with statistical algorithms, (b) basic sampling theory and practice, and (c) standards of experimental design in human studies.
