Multivariate asymmetry and allometry in human limb bones as a basis for osteometric sorting
The size and shape of a limb bone relative to another bone holds a great amount of information needed to individualize a commingled assemblage. This study maximizes discriminating information found in long bone measurements with multivariate analyses of allometry and asymmetry. Previous research on …

Sorting commingled human skeletal remains is one of the most time-consuming jobs for forensic anthropologists. Multiple measurements must be taken from each bone by hand. 3D scanners are an unfeasible alternative because they are expensive and difficult to transport. This thesis presents a software …
