چکیده
Age estimation in humans has taken an important role in today’s modern society [1-4]. It is of great importance in several areas: deciding the age of living persons and in the identification process of unknown deceased persons. For unknown deceased persons, it is of significance to identify the victims of mass disasters, fires, accidents, crashes and homicides. As regards the living persons, it is of significance when the birth certificate is not available. Age estimation includes requirements in assessing whether a person has reached the age of criminal responsibility in cases like rape, kidnapping, employment, marriage, adoption and illegal immigration.
