Heatmap-based anatomical landmark detection is still facing two unresolved challenges: (1) inability to accurately evaluate the distribution of heatmap; (2) inability to effectively exploit global spatial structure information. To address the computa...
BACKGROUND: Cephalometric analysis in orthodontics is a meticulous process requiring high precision in identifying anatomical landmarks on lateral cephalometric radiographs. Manual analysis by clinicians remains the standard, as even slight deviation...
BACKGROUND: Planning an osteotomy or arthroplasty surgery on a lower limb requires prior classification/identification of its deformities. The detection of skeletal landmarks and the calculation of angles required to identify the deformities are trad...
OBJECTIVES: To develop facial growth prediction models using artificial intelligence (AI) under various conditions, and to compare performance of these models with each other as well as with the partial least squares (PLS) growth prediction model.

PURPOSE: The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the accuracy of various skeletal and dental cephalometric parameters as produced by different commercial providers that make use of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted automated cephalometric a...
OBJECTIVES: To identify landmarks in ultrasound periodontal images and automate the image-based measurements of gingival recession (iGR), gingival height (iGH), and alveolar bone level (iABL) using machine learning.
BACKGROUND: Automatic landmarking software packages simplify the analysis of the 3D facial images. Their main deficiency is the limited accuracy of detecting landmarks for routine clinical applications. Cliniface is readily available open-access soft...
BACKGROUND: The facial landmark annotation of 3D facial images is crucial in clinical orthodontics and orthognathic surgeries for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. While manual landmarking has traditionally been the gold standard, it is labo...
