DESCRIPTION:<b>A comparison of complex profiles analyzed with different so
 ftware tools</b>  <br><span><br>The second part of this talk will document
  the creation and evaluation of ground-truth samples of increasing complex
 ity. Variables include: the number of contributors\, the amount of allele 
 sharing\, variability in template amount\, and varying mixture ratios of c
 ontributors <span>in mixed samples. These samples will be used to evaluate
  the efficacy of four open-source implementations of likelihood ratio appr
 oaches to estimating the weight of evidence: Lab Retriever (an implementat
 ion of likeLTD v2)\, LRMix Studio\, European Forensic Mixture\, and likeLT
 D v6. This work was initiated during the summer of 2016 in conjunction wit
 h the special semester at the Newton Institute devoted to <i>Probability a
 nd Statistics in Forensic Science</i>\, and continue at the time of submis
 sion of this abstract. We look forward to presenting results &ldquo\;hot o
 ff the press&rdquo\; at this meeting.</span></span>
