Prediction of the Facial Growth Direction is Challenging [PDF]
International Conference on Neural Information Processing, ICONIP
2021, CCIS 1517, 665-673, 2021 Facial dysmorphology or malocclusion is frequently associated with abnormal growth of the face. The ability to predict facial growth (FG) direction would allow clinicians to prepare individualized therapy to increase the chance for successful treatment. Prediction of FG direction is a novel problem in the machine learning (ML) domain. In this paper, we
