Abstract

We examined an identifier matching problem, where an identifier corresponds to pieces of information extracted from DNA samples associated with crime suspects or victims of accidents. Such a sample is matched to cases of a database in order to identify a person. The data we used had been encoded as integers of relevantly small intervals. We solved the identifier matching task by sorting the data and then making comparisons for a maximally reduced subset of data produced by sorting. We first constructed a simple baseline method with exhaustive search, its optimised version and compared their results to those of the sort-based method, which was superior to the former two.
