Abstract Convolutional neural networks (CNN) led to important solutions in the field of Computer Vision. More recently, forensic sciences benefited from resources artificial intelligence, especially procedures that normally require operator-dependent steps. Forensic tools for sexual dimorphism based on morphological dental traits are available but have limited performance. This study aimed test application a machine learning setup distinguish females and males using dentomaxillofacial...

Third molar development is used for dental age estimation when all the other teeth are fully mature. In most medicolegal facilities, an operator-dependent procedure. During examination of unaccompanied and undocumented minors, this procedure may lead to binary decisions around thresholds legal interest, namely ages 14, 16 18 years. This study aimed test performance artificial intelligence classify individuals below above years using third development. The sample consisted 11,640 panoramic...

AI-assisted prostate whole-gland and zonal volume quantification enable quantitative reproducibility enhance read-time efficiency. Our AI-segmentation solution enhanced measurement accuracy by 23.59%, compared with traditional estimates. Zonal enabled us to generate population normative aging-curves we used a shallow classifier identify patients BPH. findings show the transitional zone grows 2.05 ml 3.58 per decade for entire BPH, respectively, while peripheral 0.70 decade. Further, zones...

Phytoparasitic nematodes (or phytonematodes) are causing severe damage to crops and generating large-scale economic losses worldwide. In soybean crops, annual estimated at 10.6% of world production. Besides, identifying these species through microscopic analysis by an expert with taxonomy knowledge is often laborious, time-consuming, susceptible failure. this perspective, robust automatic approaches necessary for phytonematodes capable providing correct diagnoses the classification...

Over the last years, facial landmarks techniques were first and main approach to solve biometric recognition they are still capable of achieving great results in controlled environments. However, there open problems be solved, such as how deal with twins, scale variation face growth. In this work, we propose a new method based on measured values (ratios) from cephalometric landmarks, which uses an iris size normalization factor influence (face growth) effect improving Equal Error Rates (EER)...

Facial landmarks are employed in many research areas such as facial recognition, craniofacial identification, age and sex estimation among the most important. In forensic field, focus is on analysis of a particular set landmarks, defined cephalometric landmarks. Previous works demonstrated that descriptive adequacy these anatomical references for an indirect application (photo-anthropometric description) increased marking precision points, contributing to greater reliability analyzes....
