An Ear Canal Deformation Based User Authentication Using Ear Wearable Devices [PDF]
Biometric-based authentication is gaining increasing attention for wearables and mobile applications. Meanwhile, the growing adoption of sensors in wearables also provides opportunities to capture novel wearable biometrics. In this work, we propose EarDynamic, an ear canal deformation-based user authentication using in-ear wearables.

Auricular reconstruction after Mohs micrographic surgery: analysis of 101 cases
Background: The ear is a region that has a high prevalence of cutaneous carcinomas and several guidelines indicate Mohs micrographic surgery as the first-choice treatment in such cases. Although the technique allows maximum preservation of healthy tissue,

The shape of the ear canal [PDF]
It is proved that the measurement of the acoustic pressure on the ear membrane allows one to determine the shape of the ear $ uniquely.

Ear recognition can be described as a revived scientific field. Ear biometrics were long believed to not be accurate enough and held a secondary place in scientific research, being seen as only complementary to other types of biometrics, due to difficulties in measuring correctly the ear characteristics and the potential occlusion of the ear by hair ...

Retroauricular island flap for partial ear reconstruction: case reports [PDF]
Partial ear defects can be treated in several ways, including primary closure, healing by secondary intention, or flaps. Several surgical options have been described for reconstruction in order to maintain the natural contour of the ear, without ...

Papillary‐cystic neoplasms of the middle ear are distinct from endolymphatic sac tumours [PDF]
AimsPapillary neoplasms of the middle and inner ear are rare and poorly characterised. The current World Health Organization classification divides them into two major subtypes: aggressive papillary tumours (APTs) and endolymphatic sac tumours (ELSTs). The aim of this article is to present two papillary neoplasms of the middle ear that do not fit into ...

A Case of Conservatively Managed Invasive Ceruminoma and a Review of the Literature
Ceruminomas are rare tumours arising from the apocrine sweat glands of the ear canal. We present a case of a malignant ceruminoma, which was managed with local surgical excision only rather than the wider clearance more commonly undertaken with these ...

A Wide Dataset of Ear Shapes and Pinna-Related Transfer Functions Generated by Random Ear Drawings [PDF]
Head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) individualization is a key matter in binaural synthesis. However, currently available databases are limited in size compared to the high dimensionality of the data. Hereby, we present the process of generating a synthetic dataset of 1000 ear shapes and matching sets of pinna-related transfer functions (PRTFs ...
