Abstract
Forensic DNA profiling is used in various circumstances to evaluate support for two competing propositions with the assignment of a likelihood ratio. Many software implementations exist that tackle a range of inference problems spanning identification and relationship testing. We propose a flexible likelihood ratio framework that caters to inference problems in forensic genetics. The framework allows for investigation of the degree of support for the contribution of multiple persons to multiple samples allowing for persons to be related according to a pedigree, including inbred relationships. We explain how a number of routine as well as more complex problems can be treated within this framework.
