Shaping the human face: Periosteal bone modeling across ontogeny
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Facial morphology is a defining aspect of Homo sapiens that distinguishes our species from fossil ancestors and plays a central role in estimating age, sex, and ancestry in both past and present populations. Understanding how the face develops during postnatal ontogeny is essential for interpreting adult facial variation.

Canine Olfactory Differentiation of Cancer: A Review of the Literature [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Numerous studies have attempted to demonstrate the olfactory ability of canines to detect several common cancer types from human bodily fluids, breath and tissue. Canines have been reported to detect bladder cancer (sensitivity of 0.63-0.73 and specificity of 0.64-0.92) and prostate cancer (sensitivity of 0.91-0.99 and specificity of 0.91-0.97) from ...

RGBD-Dog: Predicting Canine Pose from RGBD Sensors [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 The automatic extraction of animal \reb{3D} pose from images without markers is of interest in a range of scientific fields. Most work to date predicts animal pose from RGB images, based on 2D labelling of joint positions. However, due to the difficult nature of obtaining training data, no ground truth dataset of 3D animal motion is available to ...
