Abstract:
Estimation of the exposure temperature of skeletal remains can be done by means of colourimetry and a previously published decision model for the colourimetric data, resulting in clusters that represent a range of exposure temperature. The method was based on thermally altered freshly burned human skeletal remains. However, in practice the origin or pre-burning condition of (possibly fragmentary) burned remains can be unknown. Further, in order to use the colourimetric analysis, and accompanying decision model, it is important to have a reference or test set. Fresh human material is not available for this purpose in all countries. Hence, the classification accuracy of the decision model was tested for, in some countries more readily available substitutes for fresh bone; embalmed human bone and non-human bone. The model yielded high accuracies for these sample materials, making it possible to create a reference or test set from fresh non-human and embalmed human bone as substitute for human, and also to use the decision model for these deviating samples in practice.
摘要:
可以通过比色法和先前发布的比色法数据决策模型来估算骨骼遗骸的暴露温度。产生代表暴露温度范围的簇。该方法基于热改变的新鲜燃烧的人体骨骼遗骸。然而,在实践中,(可能是零碎的)燃烧残留物的起源或预燃烧状态可能是未知的。Further,为了使用比色分析,以及伴随的决策模型,重要的是要有一个参考或测试集。并非所有国家都可用于此目的的新鲜人体材料。因此,测试了决策模型的分类精度,在一些国家,更容易获得新鲜骨骼的替代品;防腐人骨和非人骨。该模型对这些样品材料产生了很高的精度,使得有可能从新鲜的非人类和防腐的人类骨骼中创建一个参考或测试集,作为人类的替代品,并在实践中对这些偏离样本使用决策模型。
