A. Pushpalatha, B. Mukunthan . Automation of DNA Finger Printing for Precise Pattern Identification using Neural-fuzzy Mapping approach. International Journal of Computer Applications. 13, 3 ( January 2011), 16-24. DOI=10.5120/1761-2411
The conventional techniques and algorithms employed by forensic scientists to assist in the identification of individuals on the basis of their respective Deoxyribonucleic acid base(DNA) pair profiles involves more computational steps and mathematical formulas that leads to more complexity. DNA identification is not considered by many as a biometric recognition technology, mainly because it is not yet an automated process i.e. it takes more time to analyze the DNA finger prints and samples collected from the crime scene, it will be considered as a future biometric trait if it’s suitably automated. Neural networks learn by examples so that it can be trained with known examples of a problem to gain knowledge about it so the neural network can be effective to solve unknown or untrained instances of the problem if it is aptly trained. The perfect blend made of bioinformatics, neural networks and fuzzy logic results in efficient algorithms of pattern analysis techniques that induce automation which is inevitable in DNA profiling that became manually impractical with the growing amount of data.
