A method and system for statistical mapping between genetic information and facial image data including collecting a multiplicity of sets of genetic information and matching facial image data representing a multiplicity of individuals, representing the genetic information of each of the multiplicity of individuals as a first multidimensional representation, representing the facial image data of each of the multiplicity of individuals as a second multidimensional representation; and inferring correlative, non-causal, statistical relationships between the first multidimensional representations and the second multidimensional representations. A system and method for estimating the likelihood of donor-recipient transplant compatibility using facial images of potential donors, the method including inferring correlative, non-causal, statistical relationships, indicative of transplant compatibility, between multidimensional representations of facial image data of potential donors and a multidimensional representation of information relating to a potential recipient.
