Cephalometric Norms in an Omani Adult Population of Arab Descent
Objectives: This study aimed to establish cephalometric norms for an Omani population of Arab descent and to compare these with established cephalometric values for Caucasians.

ToMoBrush: Exploring Dental Health Sensing using a Sonic Toothbrush [PDF]
Early detection of dental disease is crucial to prevent adverse outcomes. Today, dental X-rays are currently the most accurate gold standard for dental disease detection. Unfortunately, regular X-ray exam is still a privilege for billions of people around the world.

Object-Centric 2D Gaussian Splatting: Background Removal and Occlusion-Aware Pruning for Compact Object Models [PDF]
Current Gaussian Splatting approaches are effective for reconstructing entire scenes but lack the option to target specific objects, making them computationally expensive and unsuitable for object-specific applications. We propose a novel approach that leverages object masks to enable targeted reconstruction, resulting in object-centric models ...

A simulator for maxillo-facial surgery integrating cephalometry and orthodontia [PDF]
Objectives : This paper presents a new simulator for maxillo-facial surgery, that gathers the dental and the maxillo-facial analyses together into a single computer-assisted procedure. The idea is first to propose a repositioning of the maxilla, via the introduction of a 3D cephalometry, applied to a 3D virtual model of the patient's skull.

Impact of occlusal proprioception on static postural balance
Conflicting results on the effects of occlusal proprioceptive information on standing sway have been reported in the literature, partly due to the heterogeneity of the occlusal criterion studied and the experimental protocol used. In this study, occlusal

OccludeNet: A Causal Journey into Mixed-View Actor-Centric Video Action Recognition under Occlusions [PDF]
The lack of occlusion data in commonly used action recognition video datasets limits model robustness and impedes sustained performance improvements. We construct OccludeNet, a large-scale occluded video dataset that includes both real-world and synthetic occlusion scene videos under various natural environments.

Omni-Scene: Omni-Gaussian Representation for Ego-Centric Sparse-View Scene Reconstruction [PDF]
Prior works employing pixel-based Gaussian representation have demonstrated efficacy in feed-forward sparse-view reconstruction. However, such representation necessitates cross-view overlap for accurate depth estimation, and is challenged by object occlusions and frustum truncations.
