+ PROFAS FOR DATASETS & AI
Forensic expertise.
With the evidence attached.
The vision is to create high-quality forensic training and research datasets from detailed examiner contributions, source-linked annotations and independent review.
01 / EXPERT ANNOTATION
Capture more than a feature label.
Connect a marked feature to its source position, classification, quality assessment and examiner notes. Retain the examination context in which the observation was made.
02 / MULTIPLE EXAMINERS
Retain the different interpretations.
Collect separate examinations of the same material. Preserve agreement, disagreement and uncertainty, alongside the evaluations and independent reviews that follow.
03 / STRUCTURED DATASETS
Bring the record into a defined dataset.
Select observations, maps, measurements, assessments and reports for a stated research or training task. Keep their source relationships and review history connected.
04 / LANGUAGE & VISUAL CONTEXT
Connect forensic language with visual observations.
Audio-linked notes open a research direction around how examiners describe the detail they annotate. Original recordings, machine transcripts and reviewed wording provide distinct sources for investigating forensic terminology, uncertainty and image-linked explanation.
- Study terminology and transcript correction in context
- Explore image-and-language research under defined permissions
- Retain disagreement and qualification in the documented account
Structured exports carry accepted speech-source metadata. Any reuse of audio or transcripts for model training needs its own permissions, participant arrangements and dataset design.
05 / DATASET QUALITY
Make quality part of the design.
A dataset project can define contributor expertise, annotation guidance, review and reference procedures, source grouping and held-out evaluation. The aim is to build data whose meaning and intended use can be examined.
- Documented sources and label definitions
- Independent contributions and review
- Task-specific qualification and evaluation
06 / HUMAN–AI COLLABORATION
Develop assistance around the examiner.
Explore bounded assistance with recorded agent contributions, examiner responses and subsequent review. PROFAS provides a foundation for studying the complete human–software workflow.
07 / THE OPPORTUNITY
Build the data behind the next research question.
We are interested in collaborations around forensic annotation, model evaluation and examiner-centred assistance. Define the material, task and intended reuse together.
