Bloodhound 2.0
is Out Now!
Bloodhound 2.0, the first and only commercial kinship analysis tool capable of operating with no human intervention. Whether you leave it entirely up to artificial intelligence or choose to have an analyst review and confirm the matches, Bloodhound 2.0 delivers unmatched precision and confidence assessments across the spectrum of pedigrees, no matter how much genetic information is available.
Thresholds and Decisions are Objective and quantified
The AI leverages the discrimination ability of pedigree structures and genotypes, the allele frequency distribution of the relevant population and a global analysis of all pedigree matches against the individuals in the database to deliver matches and their associated probabilities.
From Simple Pedigrees...
Our New Solutions in Bloodhound
Objective and quantified
introducing performance quantitation to forensics. Let the Bloodhound AI show you the impact of different allele combinations or permutations in pedigree structures on your ability to find the correct match.
Fully automated
Let the Bloodhound AI show you the impact of different allele combinations or permutations in pedigree structures on your ability to find the correct match.
Network analysis
First use of AI and network analysis in forensics. Input pedigrees are quickly organized into higher order structures with similar solution characteristics for faster results.
Learn and solve
Iterative resolution of structures with multiple missing individuals. With each new pedigree Bloodhound learns something new and processes new data a little faster.
Access anywhere
Mobile access. Connect to Bloodhound from your favorite device, whenever you need to and wherever you are.
All the Details You Need to Make the Right Match
Score and rank
Compare LR scores for possible matches and their rank
Confidence interval
See how true matches and random matches line up in the target pedigree
Error rates
Know your odds of making an incorrect match
Understanding Impact of Allele Variability
And pedigree structures on matching performance
Let’s imagine a simple pedigree structure with 2 genotyped parents and a missing child.
Other pedigrees with the same structure and different starting alleles, yield very different confidence intervals…
And different error rates
And whatever the structure, Bloodhound can obtain and a clear picture of how the scores spread…
And the probability of observing a true match
