Pixel Counting Biometric Comparison of Oswald photos

[Drew Phipps]

CONTROL COMPARISONS:

Here is our control group:

First, the pictures:

1. Booking pic of Oswald
(this will be the baseline for comparing all the Oswald photos)



2. Booking pic of Ruby


3. Pic of JFK


4. Pic of Jackie


5 Pic of Ferrie




(Measurements are (in order) eye width, pupil to pupil, nose length, nose to lip, earlobe to earlobe)

Photo Measurements

Booking pic of Oswald : 20, 46, 37, 15, 97 Error = 4.9% +0

P/W .435 P/N 1.243 P/L 3.067 P/E .474

Booking pic of Ruby: 22, 54, 45, 18, 127 Error = 4.2%+4.9%

P/W .407 P/N 1.200 P/L 3.000 P/E .425

Pic of JFK: 164, 357, 269, 134, 808 Error = 0.6%+4.9%

P/W .459 P/N 1.327 P/L 2.664 P/E .442

Pic of Jackie: 91, 253, 173, 51, 469 Error = 0.9%+4.9%

P/W .360 P/N 1.462 P/L 4.961 P/E .539

Pic of Ferrie : 35, 89, 73, 24, 190 Error = 2.5%+4.9%

P/W .393 P/N 1.219 P/L 3.708 P/E .468

As you can see, the higher resolution photos contain far less uncertainty.


Comparison of control group as a percent of Oswald's ratios
(significant difference underlined)

Oswald +-4.9%

P/W 100% P/N 100% P/L 100% P/E 100%

Ruby +-9.1%

P/W 93.6% P/N 96.5% P/L 97.8% P/E 89.7%

JFK +-5.5%

P/W 105.5% P/N 110.2% P/L 86.9% P/E 93.2%

Jackie +-5.8%

P/W 82.8% P/N 117.6% P/L 161.8% P/E 113.7%


Ferrie +-7.4%

P/W 90.3% P/N 98.1% P/L 120.9% P/E 98.7%



As you can see, the individual variations from Oswald's biometrics, compared to different individuals, were no less than 1.3%, and no greater than 61.8% However, each individual had at least one ratio that was significantly different than Oswald, even when the pixel error factor was considered. (Ruby, strangely, resembles Oswald, at least mathematically).
