The influence of internal versus external attributions of crime causality: A comparison between experts, semi-experts and lay-people. (2009)
Conference Proceeding
Murray, J., & Thomson, M. E. (2009). The influence of internal versus external attributions of crime causality: A comparison between experts, semi-experts and lay-people

The overarching aim of the present research was to investigate the possible effects of attribution on the decisions made by clinicians in comparison to those made by trainee psychologists and lay-people. A 3x3x2 mixed groups design was implemented,... Read More about The influence of internal versus external attributions of crime causality: A comparison between experts, semi-experts and lay-people..

Effecting an improvement to the fitness function. How to evolve a more identifiable face. (2008)
Conference Proceeding

In ECSIS Symposium on Bio-inspired Learning and Intelligent Systems for Security, 2008. BLISS '08doi:10.1109/bliss.2008.28

Constructing the face of a criminal from the selection of individual facial parts is a hard task. We have been working on a new system called EvoFIT that involves the selection and breeding of complete faces. The approach is theoretically better foun...

Witnesses and victims of serious crime are often required to construct a facial composite, a visual likeness of a suspect's face. The traditional method is for them to select individual facial features to build a face, but often these images are of p...

Facial composites are typically constructed by witnesses to crime by describing a suspect?s face and then selecting facial features from a kit of parts. Unfortunately, when produced in this way, composites are very poorly identified. In contrast, the... Read More about Adding Holistic Dimensions to a Facial Composite System.
