Presentation Description:
As Artificial Intelligence (AI) evolves, so does the desire to use its great power in forensic tools and examinations. This presentation will introduce the audience to probabilistic outputs from AI algorithms where results are not presented with absolute certainty. We will discuss what a probabilistic output really is and appropriate uses within examinations, allowing investigators and examiners to make informed decisions surrounding the use of AI in their work.
