Abstract

Law enforcement agencies are widely used Facial sketches by to assist in the identification and apprehension of suspects involved in criminal activities. Forensic investigations are used sketches which is either drawn by forensic artists (forensic sketches) or created with computer software (composite sketches) following the verbal description provided by an eyewitness or the victim. These sketches are posted in public places and in media in hopes that some viewers will provide tips about the identity of the suspect. This method of identifying suspects is slow and tedious and may not lead to apprehension of the suspect. Hence, there is a need for a method that can automatically and quickly match facial sketches to large police mugshot databases.
