Essential Mathematics and Statistics for Forensic Science
Автор:Craig Adam Год: 2010 Издание: [не указанo] Страниц: 366 ISBN: 9780470742532 Essential Mathematics and Statistics for Forensic Science is an accessible, student–friendly introduction to the wide range of mathematical and statistical tools needed by the forensic scientist in the analysis, interpretation and presentation of experimental measurements. From a basis of high school mathematics, the book develops essential quantitative analysis techniques within the context of a broad range of forensic applications. This clearly structured text focuses on developing core mathematical skills and an understanding of the calculations associated with the analysis of experimental work, with an emphasis on the use of graphs and the evaluation of uncertainties. Through a broad study of probability and statistics, the reader is led ultimately to the use of Bayesian approaches to the evaluation of evidence within the court. In every section, forensic applications such as ballistics trajectories, post–mortem cooling, aspects of forensic pharmacokinetics, the matching of...
