Deep Anatomical Context Feature Learning for Cephalometric Landmark Detection.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
In the past decade, anatomical context features have been widely used for cephalometric landmark detection and significant progress is still being made. However, most existing methods rely on handcrafted graphical models rather than incorporating ana...

Machine learning for image-based detection of patients with obstructive sleep apnea: an exploratory study.

Sleep & breathing = Schlaf & Atmung
PURPOSE: In 2-dimensional lateral cephalometric radiographs, patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) exhibit a more crowded oropharynx in comparison with non-OSA. We tested the hypothesis that machine learning, an application of artificial...

Automatic Cephalometric Landmark Identification System Based on the Multi-Stage Convolutional Neural Networks with CBCT Combination Images.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
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 ...

Automated Lateral Ventricular and Cranial Vault Volume Measurements in 13,851 Patients Using Deep Learning Algorithms.

World neurosurgery
BACKGROUND: No large dataset-derived standard has been established for normal or pathologic human cerebral ventricular and cranial vault volumes. Automated volumetric measurements could be used to assist in diagnosis and follow-up of hydrocephalus or...

Cascaded convolutional networks for automatic cephalometric landmark detection.

Medical image analysis
Cephalometric analysis is a fundamental examination which is widely used in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning. Its key step is to detect the anatomical landmarks in lateral cephalograms, which is time-consuming in traditional manual way. T...

Machine learning approaches for sex estimation using cranial measurements.

International journal of legal medicine
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...

Automated cephalometric landmark detection with confidence regions using Bayesian convolutional neural networks.

BMC oral health
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...

Data mining for sex estimation based on cranial measurements.

Forensic science international
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 ...

Constructing an automatic diagnosis and severity-classification model for acromegaly using facial photographs by deep learning.

Journal of hematology & oncology
Due to acromegaly's insidious onset and slow progression, its diagnosis is usually delayed, thus causing severe complications and treatment difficulty. A convenient screening method is imperative. Based on our previous work, we herein developed a new...

Web-based fully automated cephalometric analysis by deep learning.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: An accurate lateral cephalometric analysis is vital in orthodontic diagnosis. Identification of anatomic landmarks on lateral cephalograms is tedious, and errors may occur depending on the doctor's experience. Several attemp...
