In forensic genetics, short tandem repeats (STRs) are used for human identification (HID). Degraded biological trace samples with low amounts of short DNA fragments (low-quality DNA samples) pose a challenge for STR typing. Predefined…

Recently, lattice-reduction-aided detectors have been proposed for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems to give performance with full diversity like maximum likelihood receiver, and yet with complexity similar to linear receivers.…
