I'm a forensic psychiatrist. There's no plausible reason to accept the premise that criminality could ever be detected based on how someone looks... other than proliferating bias and racial profiling present in the training data.
This is a worrisome application of AI / Deep Learning.

They do not mention any potential mechanism whereby criminality could be triggering an observable change. And it's not clear to me how a human could do this in the absence of prior knowledge either. And to round it off, they state a lack of bias but give no clear indication of how they establish that it isn't biased. Sounds more like a childish wish list ("we'll do the best research, with no mistakes")
