Steven Strach gave a presentation at the Australasian Society of Forensic Document Examiners (ASFDE) Inc. (www.asfdeinc.org) meeting in Canberra on 10 April 2024. It was titled “Statistical Adventures in Handwriting” and covered the area of determining the expected frequency distribution of similarities and differences in basic classified features of some letters and numerals written by 83 people. This results in a large number of possible combinations of comparison pairs (3403) and for the initial work this was reduced by considering the comparisons for 23 of these people (with 253 pair comparisons). Useful feedback was received as requested from attendees on efficiently dealing with the statistics of large numbers of comparison pairs.
