Four computer programs are developed for easy calculations of likelihood ratios (LRs) for paternity testing and kinship determinations. The programs are constructed based on the concepts of Bayes Theorem, conditional probability and pedigree analysis. Computer enumeration is used for handling the calculations. The programs have wide applicability, and users can save and check the results easily. The programs employ the distinctive pull-down manual, making them very easy to use. In this paper, we explain the theory and describe various features of the software.
开发了四个计算机程序,用于轻松计算亲子鉴定和亲属关系判定的似然比(LR)。这些程序基于贝叶斯定理、条件概率和谱系分析的概念构建。使用计算机枚举来处理计算。这些程序具有广泛的适用性,用户可以轻松保存和检查结果。程序采用独特的下拉式手册,使其非常易于使用。在本文中,我们解释了该软件的理论并描述了其各种特性。
