Abstract

There are many uses of profiling. Currently, as represented by this book, the science of profiling is in its nascent stages. As it becomes more accurate, more uses for it will emerge. However, there is a dichotomy associated with this progression. While its increasing accuracy is likely to give rise to more applications, its potential to severely infringe on a person’s privacy through them will also rise. In the context of practical applications, two issues therefore become extremely important: whether the information generated through profiling is accurate or not, and whether it is relevant and ethical or not.

For instance, a sample of 100 people may have 20, 30 and 50 instances of short, medium height and tall people respectively.

If Eq. 10.50 \(\mu \), the true mean of P(Y), instead of \(\bar{Y}\), there would be N degrees of freedom and the denominator would be N.
