This article describes ongoing research on the application of AI techniques such as Graph Neural Networks to assist investigators with the discovery of relations and patterns in digital forensic evidence. Digital forensic analysis of smartphones and computers reveals forensic artifacts that are extracted …

Highlights •Crime scene investigations are accompanied by cognitive challenges. •Introducing technologies at crime scenes requires research into the human factor. •Mobile technologies can impede the investigation without studying the impact.

In 2016 kreeg de Boog te maken met een forse toename van veiligheidsincidenten met patiënten. Naar aanleiding van de toename van de veiligheidsincidenten binnen de Boog in 2016 is er in 2017 door middel van een prospectieve risico inventarisatie (hierna te noemen: PRI) onderzoek gedaan naar risico’s …

Mobile Rapid DNA technology is close to being incorporated into crime scene investigations, with the potential to identify a perpetrator within hours. However, the use of these techniques entails the risk of losing the sample and potential evidence, because the device not only consumes the inserted sample, …

A large body of research has described the influence of context information on forensic decision-making. In this study, we examined the effect of context information on the search for and selection of traces by students (N = 36) and crime scene investigators (N = 58). Participants investigated an ambiguous …

AI wordt al met succes toegepast in E-discovery als machinelearningtechniek ten behoeve van predictive coding om slimmer e-mails en documenten te filteren en te clusteren. AI wordt ook al ingezet door opsporingsinstanties bij het automatisch zoeken naar afbeeldingen met wapens, drugs en bloot en naar …

This study replicates previous research that investigated the influence of rapid identification information on the interpretation of a crime scene conducted with English crime scene investigators (CSIs). Given the special circumstances under which CSIs in one country operate, the present study investigates …

UPLC-MS is a commonly used technique to first separate complex samples and subsequently quantify molecules of interest. Herein we describe the use of UPLC-MS using an amide stationary phase to quantify non-derivatized amino acids extracted from fingerprints. As detector either a triple-quadrupole MS/MS …

In this paper, we describe a promising method to evaluate the location of fingermarks on two-dimensional objects, which provides valuable information for the evaluation of fingermarks at activity level. For this purpose, an experiment with pillowcases was conducted at the Dutch music festival Lowlands, …
