Artificial Intelligence in Forensic Science

Artificial Intelligence in Forensic Science addresses the current and emerging opportunities being utilized to apply modern Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to current forensic and investigation practices. The book also showcases the increasing benefits of AI where and when it can be applied to various techniques and forensic disciplines. The increasing rate of sophisticated crimes has increased the opportunity and need for the forensic field to explore a variety of emerging technologies to counter criminals—and AI is no exception. There are many current investigative challenges that, with ingenuity and application, can be helped with the application of AI, especially in the digital forensic and cyber-crime arena. The book also explains many practical studies that have been carried out to test AI technologies in crime detection, uncovering evidence, and identifying perpetrators. In the last decade, the use of AI has become common in many fields and now is an ideal time to look at the various ways AI can be integrated into judicial, forensic, and criminal cases to better collect and analyze evidence, thereby improving outcomes.
