In this paper, we propose a structure-coherent deep feature learning method for face alignment. Unlike most existing face alignment methods which overlook the facial structure cues, we explicitly exploit the relation among facial landmarks to make th...
Ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia involves visualizing sono-anatomy to guide needle insertion and the perineural injection of local anesthetic. Anatomical knowledge and recognition of anatomical structures on ultrasound are known to be imperfect ...
This study was designed to develop and verify a fully automated cephalometry landmark identification system, based on multi-stage convolutional neural networks (CNNs) architecture, using a combination dataset. In this research, we trained and tested ...
OBJECTIVE: Imaging software has become critical tools in the diagnosis and decision making for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). However, the interobserver reproducibility of the maximum cross-section diameter is poor. This study aim...
In this study, we propose a fast and accurate method to automatically localize anatomical landmarks in medical images. We employ a global-to-local localization approach using fully convolutional neural networks (FCNNs). First, a global FCNN localizes...
Three-dimensional facial images are becoming more and more widespread. As such images provide more information about facial morphology than 2D imagery, they show great promise for use in future forensic applications, including age estimation and veri...

The aim of the present study is to apply support vector machines (SVM) and artificial neural network (ANN) as sex classifiers and to generate useful classification models for sex estimation based on cranial measurements. Besides, the performance of t...
BACKGROUND: Despite the integral role of cephalometric analysis in orthodontics, there have been limitations regarding the reliability, accuracy, etc. of cephalometric landmarks tracing. Attempts on developing automatic plotting systems have continuo...
We design a framework based on Mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network to automatically detect and separately extract anatomical components of mosquitoes-thorax, wings, abdomen and legs from images. Our training dataset consisted of 1500 smart...
The aim of the present study is to develop effective and understandable classification models for sex estimation and to identify the most dimorphic linear measurements in adult crania by means of data mining techniques. Furthermore, machine learning ...
