AI-enabled Automatic Multimodal Fusion of Cone-Beam CT and Intraoral Scans for Intelligent 3D Tooth-Bone Reconstruction and Clinical Applications [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 A critical step in virtual dental treatment planning is to accurately delineate all tooth-bone structures from CBCT with high fidelity and accurate anatomical information. Previous studies have established several methods for CBCT segmentation using deep learning.

CPG-Based Control Scheme for Quadruped Robot to Withstand the Lateral Impact [PDF]
Transactions of Beijing Institute of Technology 35.4 (2015):
384-390, 2017 This paper aims to present a stability control strategy for quadruped robot under lateral impact with the help of lateral trot. We firstly propose five necessary conditions for keeping balance. The classical four-neuron Central Pattern Generator (CPG) network with Hopf oscillators is then extended to eight-neuron network with four more trigger-enabled ...

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Enhanced artificial intelligence-based diagnosis using CBCT with internal denoising: Clinical validation for discrimination of fungal ball, sinusitis, and normal cases in the maxillary sinus [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) provides 3D volumetric imaging of a target with low radiation dose and cost compared with conventional computed tomography, and it is widely used in the detection of paranasal sinus disease. However, it lacks the sensitivity to detect soft tissue lesions owing to reconstruction constraints.

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.

The distally anchored connective tissue graft platform for papilla enhancement: A case report
Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background As the need for using dental implants to replace single missing teeth grows, so does the demand for greater esthetic results. However, achieving complete interproximal papillae fill in single‐tooth implant restorations remains a challenge. The distally anchored connective tissue platform is a novel soft tissue augmentation technique
