OBJECTIVES: Annotating carious lesions on images is challenging. For artificial intelligence (AI) applications, the aggregation of heterogeneous multi-examiner annotations into one single annotation (e.g. via majority voting, MV) is usually needed. W...
OBJECTIVE: The imbalanced nature of real-world datasets is an ongoing challenge in the field of machine and deep learning. In medicine and in dentistry, most data samples represent patients not affected by pathologies, and on imagery, pathologic imag...

OBJECTIVES: Convolutional neural network (CNN) is a state-of-art deep learning (DL) method with superior performance in image classification. Here, a CNN-based workflow is proposed to discriminate hominid teeth. Our hope is that this method could hel...
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to apply deep learning to detect caries lesions of different radiographic extension on bitewings, hypothesizing it to be significantly more accurate than individual dentists.
