摘要: Much of the data which appears in forensic and archaeological literature is ordinal or categorical. This particularly true age related indicators presented by Gustafson his method human adult estimation using structural changes teeth. technique still being modified elaborated. However, statistical methods regression analysis employed others are not appropriate to this type data, but because alternatives have yet been explored. paper presents a novel approach based upon application Bayes' theorem categorical overcomes many problems associated with analysis.
