Comparative Review of Likelihood Ratio (LR) and Probability of Random Correspondence (PRC) as Statistical Tools for Fingerprint Evidence Evaluation

trials, what is the probability distribution of X+Y? That is, create a table that contains each unique possible value of X+Y (each value only listed once) and each possibility’s corresponding probability. We have a fair ten-sided die. Find the math expectation of a single roll. Find the math expectation of the numerical sum of 5 rolls. Find the math expectation of the numerical product (i.e., multiplication) of 7 rolls. are identically distributed independent random variables such that…

The review of the ratios analysis shows Working Capital (current assets-current liabilities) to be a very positive $9,538M. The Current Ratio ( current assets / current liabilities) of 1.49:1 indicates that current liabilities can be covered with current assets. The Quick Ratio ((current assets – inventories) ÷ current liabilities) of 1.42:1 reveals that Dell can certainly cover their current obligations without selling inventory or pursuing short-term borrowing in order to raise cash. Management…

definitively whether or not end of course reaction evaluation measures are an effective evaluation tool. Reaction evaluations are also hampered by the fact that there has been little systematic academic research carried out focusing explicitly on trainee reaction to training. Part of the reason for this lack of academic research is because academics and practitioners disagree on what should be measured. Whilst at least eight training evaluation models have been identified (Osbourne 1996, Eseryel…

the human subjects committees of Harvard School of Public Health and the WHO. Prospectively collected data was obtained from a total of 7688 urgent noncardiac surgery patients within 8 diverse hospitals around the world and analyzed with SAS 9.1 statistical software package. The rates of inpatient complications, surgical site infections, and deaths dropped (11.0% to 7.0% [p<0.001], 6.2% to 3.4% [p<0.001], and 1.5% to 0.8% [p=0.003] respectively) after introduction of the checklist. Authors concluded…

Applications SWOT analysis is a popular analysis tool used in different situations that include not just business and marketing but also project planning and personal career development (Chapman 1995-2012). As for the strategic planning, Kenneth Andrews popularized his idea that good strategy means keeping a fit between the external situations a firm faces and the internal capabilities (Hill and Westbrook, 1997). The format the SWOT analysis presented is a 2x2 'internal/external' matrix, in which…

of health and illness as spiritual using techniques such as meditation, prayer and positive thinking, has stayed as a health tradition among our families beliefs and practices to this day. Today modern medicine is looking at the mind as a valuable tool to prepare persons and bodys for wellness and rehabilitation. An example of this would be biofeedback. This is a technique where people are…

lot Any moist or wet biological evidence (blood, body fluids, plants, etc.) like the lottery ticket on the counter with the blood smeared print on it should be collected wearing gloves it should then be placed in a clean unused paper container such an envelope, and or small bag and transported back to an evidence receiving area, it should then be taken out of the bag and allowed to air dry thoroughly. The Ninhydrin process should be applied to this piece of evidence to obtain noticeable prints. The…

provide additional evidence based research to validate the usefulness of this tool in practice. The NHS incident rates (NICE, 2003) of pressure ulcers in the UK is a concern and this systematic review is an accepted, research approach in its own right and using descriptive statistical data measures the outcome of results more precisely (Gerrish, 2006). The measurable variables identified were positive predictive values (PPV), comorbidities, mobility and usefulness of the Waterlow tool in clinical practice…

The agro-ecosystem of the Lisu was such that they practiced shifting cultivation. Land was claimed by labor and not owned, and no one was dependent on anyone else to get access to the means of production – land – to feed themselves and their family. This egalitarian social system back then meant that young people with the ability and energy to labor could make a start for themselves in life by finding an open piece of land and cultivating cash crops such as opium. The fact that opium was an excellent…

likely they are to happen, using the idea of probability. Probability theory is the branch of mathematics concerned with probability, the analysis of random phenomena. Probability is indeed used in real life, especially in the field of economics. Economists proceed to model the behavior of economic agents by assuming that these agents form probability estimates. However, there is an interesting division between economists who tend to treat these probability estimates as subjective and those who treat…
