9 Abstract The ear was first used to identify individuals in the late 19 th century as part of 11 anthropometric measurements of the human body that included measuring ear length and width. However, despite the fact that earprints are found in 15% of crime scenes, research in this field has been very limited since the advent and success of fingerprinting in the early 20 th century. Although earprint identification has been used in criminal trials both within the UK and abroad, to date a standardised computer method for earprint and ear image recognition does not exist. This project has managed to design the first computerised system for earprints and image identification, using data collected from 400 volunteers and a novel piece of software designed by K9 Forensic Services Ltd, (Northampton, UK). Previously published manual methods for ear image identification were critically reviewed and their effectiveness in constructing a database and identifying a match was tested against the computerised system. The data generated in the project was also used to assess differences between right and left ears within each gender, and enabled the design of an ideal ear for each group for use in anthropological identification. Finally, the distribution of piercings on the right and left ears was also assessed and

10 helped to identify another feature that may be of use in ear identification. The project has produced, to my knowledge, the first computerised earprint and ear photograph recognition system in the world, and has managed to design the first published method for earprint identification.
