Estimation Of Height / Stature From Facial Parameters In Indore Population

Abstract

All face parameter data was transformed from millimeters to centimeters. Data was analysed using SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) on Windows XP Professional. Various statistical tests were performed on the obtained data, including mean, standard deviation, regression analysis, standard error of estimate, and Karl Pearson's correlation coefficient. We ran statistical analysis on the data to find a correlation between various face attributes and height, and we compared the findings for men and women. The Indore population's gender difference marking points were determined using the formula Mean ± 3SD. These points will be valuable xiii for future usage in medicolegal instances for determining the sex of an unknown sample. The examination of stature was done using regression models. Using them on a different sample of 25 boys and 25 females from Indore allowed us to assess their dependability as well. Results for the Indore, Hindu, Muslim, and Christian populations may be found in the regression equations supplied by this research, which assesses stature from face parameters. When forensic examinations include solely face remains, these methods have been shown accurate and reliable.
