Toward DNA-based facial composites: Preliminary results and validation

Highlights • Facial variation is a complex and multipartite trait that requires proper modeling techniques. • Using a genetic basis of 24 SNPs, sex and genomic ancestry we create DNA-based facial composites. • Physical accuracy of the predictions is mainly determined by sex and genomic ancestry. • T...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Facial variation is a complex and multipartite trait that requires proper modeling techniques. • Using a genetic basis of 24 SNPs, sex and genomic ancestry we create DNA-based facial composites. • Physical accuracy of the predictions is mainly determined by sex and genomic ancestry. • The SNP-effects significantly increase the distinctiveness of the predictions.
