n forensic anthropology, sex estimation is the grounds for an accurate identification of unknown human skeletal remains. This
part is essential in establishing the individual biological profile. The objective of the study is to enhance the development of
forensic anthropology in Romania by creating a formula for assessing sex based on metric analysis of clavicle. A total of 46 cases
from Institute of Legal Medicine Iasi, Romania were included in the study. The maximum length of the clavicle, the maximum
breadth of sternal end and the maximum breadth of acromial articular surface of the individual which age we knower were taken
before autopsy. The method relies on a machine learning ensemble algorithm, TensorFlow, to classify the age of the metric
analysis, which was used in this pilot study. The algorithm behind it is based on known algorithms in the field and creating a new
one requires advanced research and mathematics. The result provided by the computer is a number between 0 and 1. Under 0.5
she's considered a woman and over a man. For better accuracy you can enter other help values as age or more numeric values that
can group the dataset. That way, improving future predictions. The preliminary results obtained are good. The computer finds
the correct number of men and women. Yet, the sample is still limited, and more research (more cases) should be done to verify
these preliminary results. In the end, the program should be tested on skeletal collections.
