Discrimination of individuals from bone tissue using laser ablation spectroscopy and mathematical processing.

摘要

Discrimination of individuals from bone tissue ablation using laser spectroscopy and mathematical processing. The method is based on analysis of bone tissue empelando spectroscopy technique laser ablation combined with a neural network that can handle a large number of data in a very short time. The methodology provides a convenient method of high sensitivity and specificity in discriminating bone, regardless of age, which allows quickly group a set of bone remains from an individual and clearly distinguished from other individuals or bones tissue they could be next to the first. The method developed has application in various fields as, for example, anthropology, archeology, and especially in forensic determinations.
