The authors compare some genetic triallelic models for finger-print pattern inheritance built according to the Galton classification. These models keep at the same time into account the available information on fingerprints: population frequencies for individuals, matchings in couples of MZ-twins and in families composed of parents and their offspring. For every finger, on the basis of the data for individuals and twins, the probabilities of the genotypic population frequencies and a penetrance value are evaluated as parameters of a support (likelihood) function for each model. Then, by utilizing the data on families, the support given to the proposed models is evaluated. Finally, the support of the alternative models is synoptically considered for comparative purposes. In the present paper these models are tried with reliable data, collected and classified by Alciati and Folin, of the Institute of Anthropology of the University of Padua. The results substantially agree with the hypotheses formulated by other authors who did not utilize statistical models.
作者比较了一些根据高尔顿分类法构建的用于指纹模式遗传的遗传三等位基因模型。这些模型同时考虑了指纹的可用信息：个体的群体频率、同卵双胞胎夫妇以及由父母及其后代组成的家庭中的匹配情况。对于每根手指，根据个体和双胞胎的数据，评估基因型群体频率的概率和一个外显率值，作为每个模型的支持（似然）函数的参数。然后，利用家庭数据评估对所提出模型的支持程度。最后，为了进行比较，综合考虑替代模型的支持程度。在本文中，这些模型用帕多瓦大学人类学研究所的阿尔恰蒂和福林收集并分类的可靠数据进行了检验。结果与未使用统计模型的其他作者所提出的假设基本一致。
