What needs to be clarified
The task is to assess how the report accounts for perspective distortion, distinguishing observed features from their interpretation. The assessment must consider the suitability of each item and whether the grounds for the proposed conclusion can be checked.
Materials to prepare
- Complete report with source images and photographic tables
- Original selfie and full camera recording segment
- Available camera-position and distance information
What to compare
Check capture distance where documented, usable contours and reasoning about differences; assess whether a perspective-dependent proportion was treated as a stable feature. Every significant feature is linked to a specific part of the material. Similarities and differences are assessed together, considering alternative explanations and the limitations of the examination method.
Possible outcome of the analysis
A possible deliverable is a review of arguments about facial proportions, with verifiable examples and reasons for the assessment. Unresolved questions and additional examinations needed are stated separately, without promising an answer in advance.
Limits of the conclusions
Unknown distance may preclude justified comparison of disputed proportions. Conclusions are confined to the examined items and stated conditions; insufficient features require an explicit finding that the relevant question cannot be resolved.
