Measuring the Rarity of Fingerprint Patterns in the Dutch Population Using an Extended Classification Set

Abstract: Latent print examiners often use their experience and knowledge to reach a conclusion on the identity of the source. Their conclusion is primarily based on their personal opinion on the rarity of the matching fingerprint features. Fingerprint patterns, if present, can play a significant role in the final assessment of a match. The authors believe that statistical data on the rarity of fingerprint patterns strengthens the subjective evaluation of the corresponding information. In order to provide fingerprint ex… Show more

“…A fingerprint possesses a large number of specific characteristics that assist with identifying an individual. Extensive works are available describing fingerprint pattern distribution [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8], fingerprint ridge count [9][10][11][12], ridge density [13][14][15][16][17], minutiae [5,6], and other dermatoglyphic features present on the fingertips [18,19]. In a typical forensic case, obtaining a full ten digit set of fingerprints is highly unlikely.…”
