BACKGROUND: Studies of mammalian sexual dimorphism have traditionally involved the measurement of selected dimensions of particular skeletal elements and use of single data-analysis procedures. Consequently, such studies have been limited by a variet...
The classification performance of the statistical methods binary logistic regression (BLR), multinomial and penalized multinomial logistic regression (MLR, pMLR), linear discriminant analysis (LDA), and the machine learning algorithms naïve Bayes cla...
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 ...
Designing a cranial implant to restore the protective and aesthetic function of the patient's skull is a challenging process that requires a substantial amount of manual work, even for an experienced clinician. While computer-assisted approaches with...

PURPOSE: This study aims to evaluate the impact of key parameters on the pseudo computed tomography (pCT) quality generated from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with a 3-dimensional (3D) convolutional neural network.
In contrast to the vast majority of reptiles, the skulls of adult crown birds are characterized by a high degree of integration due to bone fusion, e.g., an ontogenetic event generating a net reduction in the number of bones. To understand this proce...
The annotation of three-dimensional (3D) cephalometric landmarks in 3D computerized tomography (CT) has become an essential part of cephalometric analysis, which is used for diagnosis, surgical planning, and treatment evaluation. The automation of 3D...

Real time brain transcranial ultrasound imaging is extremely intriguing because of its numerous applications. However, the skull causes phase distortion and amplitude attenuation of ultrasound signals due to its density: the speed of sound is signifi...
Compared to computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) delineation of craniomaxillofacial (CMF) bony structures can avoid harmful radiation exposure. However, bony boundaries are blurry in MRI, and structural information needs to be b...
