Parmak İzinden Cinsiyet Tahmininde 10 Parmak Arasındaki İlişkinin Analizi

Bu çalışma 10 parmak için parmak izleri ve cinsiyetler arasındaki ilişkileri araştırmaktadır. Yaşları 18 ve 25 arasında olan 19 bayan ve 22 baydan alınan 410 parmak izi araştırma için değerlendirilmiştir. Bu çalışma Türk vatandaşları için literatüre sunulan 10 parmak izi inceleyen ilk kapsamlı çalışmadır. Parmak izi veritabanımızdan elde edilen tepe yoğunluğu, tepe kalınlığının vadi kalınlığına oranı ve ortalama tepe genişliği değerleri cinsiyetleri sınıflandırmak için kullanılmıştır. Sonuçlar, Türk vatandaşları için cinsiyet sınıflandırmasının başarılı olduğunu göstermektedir. Tepe kalınlığı-tepe genişliği-RTVTR için ortalama değerler baylar için 13,09-36,56-0,46 ve bayanlar için 14,43-37,44-0,47’dir. Tepe yoğunluğunun cinsiyetler arasındaki farkı literatürdeki diğer çalışmalara gore en düşük değer olan 1,34’dür.

Analysis of the Relationship Among 10 Fingers in Gender Predictionm from Fingerprints

This study investigates the relationships among fingerprints and genders for all 10 fingerprints. 410 fingerprints taking from 19 females and 22 males aged between 18 and 25 years old were considered for this investigation. This is the first time comprehensive study that investigates 10 fingerprints presented to the literature for Turkish citizens. Ridge density, ridge thickness to valley thickness ratio and total ridge breadth values gained from our fingerprint database were used to classify genders. The results have shown that the gender prediction is successful for Turkish citizens. The average values for ridge density-ridge breadth-RTVTR are 13.09-36.56-0.46 for men and 14.43-37.44-0.47 for women, respectively. The gender difference for ridge density is 1.34, which is the lowest value among the other studies in the literature.
