Uni-3DAD: GAN-Inversion Aided Universal 3D Anomaly Detection on Model-free Products [PDF]
Anomaly detection is a long-standing challenge in manufacturing systems. Traditionally, anomaly detection has relied on human inspectors. However, 3D point clouds have gained attention due to their robustness to environmental factors and their ability to represent geometric data. Existing 3D anomaly detection methods generally fall into two categories.

Efficacy of Injectable Bone Fillers for Alveolar Ridge Preservation: A Histomorphometrical Analysis
ABSTRACT Aim To assess the efficacy of injectable bone fillers for alveolar ridge preservation (ARP). Materials and Methods The mandibular premolars (P2, P3, P4) were bilaterally assigned to ARP in a total of n = 9 beagle dogs. Each P was decapitated and hemisected under preservation of the mesial (i.e., devitalization and filling with calcium ...
