Abstract
The use of DNA profiles in forensic identification problems are common procedure
nowadays. It was in England, in 1995, where the first DNA profiles database was built. It gave
rise to new challenges concerning the forensic identification. Here it is intended to exemplify
how to use the analysis of DNA profiles to solve the problem of simple maternity search. For
this aim it is necessary to make use of a probabilistic expert system (PES), in this case an
object-oriented Bayesian network (OOBN).
