Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) revolutionizes forensic science by identifying patterns overlooked by traditional methods, improving precision, and accelerating analysis. Additionally, AI enhances the training of professionals through safe virtual simulations and environments, offering practical experiences. Its use enables the design of crime prevention strategies through predictive analysis of criminal data. In fields such as dactyloscopy, ballistics, forensic anthropology, and forensic photography, AI reduces subjectivity, optimizes processes, and improves result accuracy. Advanced tools, like image post-processing algorithms, are applied in protocols like Istanbul’s to document injuries invisible to the human eye, strengthening investigations into torture and mistreatment.
