abstract |
Previous research on composite systems has cast doubt on their potential to produce
a good likeness. Poor memory of the target's face and problems in translating a verbal
description into a visual mental image were examined as possible reasons for this.
A computerized composite system was used to construct facial images of famous individuals.
Results indicated that a reasonable number of composites were identified overall.
Composites produced directly by the “operators” tended to be more accurate than those
produced via “describers”. In addition, composites produced via describers, but not
those directly by operators, were less accurate when created from memory than when
a photograph was provided. This suggests that verbal descriptions, as well as facial
memory, may limit composite accuracy. |
