[Identification of fragmented bodies of the killed from group burials].

The article deals with the peculiarities of person identification of the great number of unidentified bodies subjected to considerable destruction and fragmentation and of the remains from the group burial places. The main principles of organization and conduction of objects' identification are formulated; the basic algorithm of these investigations is expounded. The authors substantiate the necessity of creation of specialized computer complex intended for identification of the fragmented bodies in the cases of their mass delivery.

Anatomical appraisal of the skulls and teeth associated with the family of Tsar Nicolay Romanov.

This article describes the identification of skeletal remains attributed to the family of Tsar Nicolay Romanov and other persons buried together at a site near present-day Ekaterinburg, Russia. Detailed descriptions are given regarding the objective methods of craniofacial and odontological identification that were used. Employing computer-assisted photographic superimposition techniques and statistical analysis of morphologic and other characteristics of the specimens, this study identifies with a high likelihood of certainty the remains of the Tsar, his wife, three of his four daughters, and four household assistants. Very strong evidence is presented that the Tsar's daughter Anastasia was killed in 1918. This study demonstrates the effectiveness of the methods and trustworthiness of the results, as well as the prospects of future application of the methods for the identification of skeletonized human remains.

[Establishing the personal identity of the victims in aviation catastrophes].

Algorithm of organization measures and expert investigations is proposed, based on experience gained in expert studies during liquidation of aircraft catastrophes. It permits effective classification, differentiation, and identification of victims and is based on traditional and high technological methods of investigation.

[New technology in craniofacial human identification].

Results of development and prospects of using new computer technologies of craniofacial personality identification based on three-dimensional simulation of identification objects are demonstrated.

Computers↗

[Identification of fragmented bodies in large-scale accidents].

Organizational aspects of the forensic medical expertise of fragmented corpses in cases of huge death-rolls are discussed. Algorithm of identification examinations; principle requirements applicable to expert's examinations in cases when the objects of examination are brought in within some time intervals; as well as peculiarities and methods of registration, of separate examinations and of classification of objects are under consideration.

Autopsy↗

[Identification problems in emergencies with human victims].

The problems and errors in personal identifications in rescue work after accidents with a large number of human victims are considered. The order of actions of forensic medical experts in personal identification in emergency situation is proposed.

[The choice of the study method in forensic medical osteological identification].

Discusses the problems related to the theoretical validation of selecting a method of investigation, its application with due consideration for the algorithm of osteological identification, and assessment of the results of this or that method from the viewpoint of the objectiveness and informative value of the method for osteological identification.

[The use of a modelling method in craniometry].

Laser interferometry is proposed for accurate measurements of the external parameters and fixation of the relief of human skull surface. This method creates a detailed three-dimensional computer model of the object of investigation, which can be used in automated systems of personality identification based on investigation of the skull and life-time photos. Further development of the method opens new vistas in automation of the trassological and ballistic identification.
