Abstract

This book is in the AAFS Reference Series Library and serves a guide on using AI in forensic science. In Zeno's year of Presidency of the AAFS, one of the topics was Artificial Intelligence and the impact it can have on forensic science. In many forensic products Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning is already included without the user being aware of it. Examples are software for facial and speaker comparison, many digital forensic packages for searching on for instance firearms. Furthermore, it is upcoming in chemometrics and many other fields. Also, the use of AI can impact forensic science, for instance on easier to make deepfakes, so spoofing evidence becomes easier. Different jurisdictions will handle the use of AI differently, depending on the laws. Examples are provided of good use of artificial intelligence, where the expert should be in the loop. The expert as well as the courts also needs to know the limitations of the approach. The book is composed out of chapters which can be used in a course, and will finalize with the newest research in developing approaches with graph neural networks. The book first does an introduction in the field as such, then it will go deeper in the legal issues with AI and the need for developing standard. Many examples of using AI are discussed and presented, such as smart cities, IoT in Hansken and at the end Also, the use of AI for making deepfakes will be discussed as well as how to detect it. The field develops rapidly, and much awareness is also being made by the European Commission on regulation of AI in practical use. In the United States NIST is working on standards on using Artificial Intelligence. New legislation is expected in many states, for example Colorado has legislation on use of facial recognition services and Vermont has legislation enacted on ethical use of artificial intelligence. One of the most significant applications of AI in forensic science is in the analysis of DNA evidence. DNA sequencing technology has advanced significantly in recent years, allowing scientists to analyze large amounts of genetic data quickly and accurately. However, the sheer volume of data generated by these techniques can be overwhelming for human analysts. AI algorithms can be used to quickly and accurately identify genetic markers that are associated with specific individuals or groups, making it easier for forensic scientists to identify suspects or eliminate suspects from an investigation.

Abstract

The quantity, diversity, and sophistication of Internet of Things (IoT) items are rapidly increasing, posing significant issues and solutions for forensic science. Such systems are becoming increasingly common in public locations, businesses, universities, residences, and other shared offices, producing enormous amounts of data at rapid speeds in a variety of forms. IoT devices can be used as suspects, digital witnesses, or instruments of crime and cyberattacks, posing new investigation problems, forensic issues, security threats, legal concerns, privacy concerns, and ethical dilemmas. A cyberattack on IoT devices might target the device itself or associated systems, particularly vital infrastructure. This book discusses the advancements in IoT and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) Forensics. The first objective is to learn and understand the fundamentals of the Internet of Things Forensics. This objective will answer the question of why and how the IoT has evolved itself as one of the most promising and widely accepted technology across the globe and has widely accepted applications. The second objective is to learn how to use the CPS to answer many computational problems. CPS Forensics is a promising domain and various advancements are there in this field. This book is structured in such a way so that the field of study is relevant to each reader's major or interests. The book's goal is to help each reader to see the relevance of IoT and CPS Forensics to his or her career or interests. This book not only presents numerous case stories from a global perspective, but it also compiles a large amount of literature and research from a database. As a result, this book effectively demonstrates the concerns, difficulties, and trends surrounding the topic while also encouraging readers to think globally. The main goal of this project is to encourage both researchers and practitioners to share and exchange their experiences and recent studies between academia and industry.

Abstract

"Designed for the non-security professional, this book is an overview of the field of cyber security. The Second Edition updates outdated content and introduces new topics such as business changes and outsourcing. It addresses new cyber security risks such as Internet of Things and Distributed Networks (i.e., blockchain) and adds new sections on strategy based on the OODA (observe-orient-decide-act) loop in the cycle. By mastering the principles in this volume, engineering professionals will not only better understand how to mitigate the risk of security incidents and keep their data secure, but also understand how to break into this expanding profession"--

Abstract

This textbook provides essential and fundamental information to modern forensics investigations. It discusses criminalistics and crime scene aspects, including investigation, management, collecting and packaging various types of physical evidence, forwarding, and chain of custody. It presents fundamental principles, ethics, challenges and criticism of forensic sciences and reviews the crime typologies, the correlates of crime, criminology, penology, and victimology. It provides a viewpoint on legal aspects, including types of evidence, the procedure in the court and scrutiny of the evidence and experts. The book summarizes forensic serological evidences such as blood, semen, saliva, milk-tears, sweat, vaginal fluids, urine, and sweat. It also provides an overview of forensic examination of different types of evidence and also includes comprehensive detailing of forensic ballistics including firearm classification, bullet comparison and matching. Further, it explores the examinations of drugs, chemicals, explosives, and petroleum products. It focuses on the various aspects of forensic toxicology, including the study of various poisons/toxins, associated signs and symptoms, a fatal dose /fatal period of poisons. The book also emphasizes digital and cyber forensics, including classification, data recovery tools, encryption and decryption methods, image, and video forensics. It is a useful resource for graduate and post-graduate students in the field of Forensic Science.

Abstract

This book examines the study of psychopathy using behavioral ecological framework. It consists of two parts. The first describes the science of human behavioral ecology, including: • Basic concepts of evolutionary biology • Evolutionary behavioral sciences • Evolutionary ecology of family • Evolutionary tradeoffs • Life history theory • Behavioral ecology of personality • Psychopathy and its current evolution. The second part of the book describes empirical research on psychopathy in evolutionary ecological context, aiming to explore fertility-longevity tradeoffs in psychopathy, interacting phenotypes in psychopathy, and parental effects associated with psychopathy. This part contains the discussion of the study’s findings which is based on several theoretical concepts described in part one. This volume is ideal for psychopathy researchers hoping to bridge the natural and social sciences in a new and innovative way.
