Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique books looks at a cost-efficient, fast and accurate means of facial reconstruction--from segmented, decomposed, or skeletal remains--using computer-graphic and computational means.Computer-Graphic Facial Reconstruction is designed as a valuable resource for those scientists designing new research projects and protocols, as well as a practical handbook of methods and techniques for medico-legal practitioners who actually identify the faceless victims of crime. It looks at a variety of approaches: artificial intelligence using neural networks, case-based reasoning, Baysian belief systems, along with a variety of imaging methods: radiological, CT, MRI and the use of imaging devices.The methods described in this book complement, or may even replace, the less-reliable, more traditional means of securing identification by presumptive means, i.e., recognition of clothing, personal effects and clay reconstruction.- Covers cutting-edge technologies in the context of historical forensic reconstruction methods- Features stellar authors from around the globe- Bridges the areas of computer graphics, animation, and forensic anthropology

Download or read book Three dimensional Cranio Facial Reconstruction in Forensic Identification written by S. De Greef and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 6 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three-dimensional (3D) cranio-facial reconstruction can be useful in the identification of an unknown body. The progress in computer science and the improvement of medical imaging technologies during recent years had significant repercussions on this domain. New facial soft tissue depth data for children and adults have been obtained using ultrasound, CT-scans and radiographies. New guidelines for facial feature properties such as nose projection, eye protrusion or mouth width, have been suggested, but also older theories and "rules of thumbs" have been critically evaluated based on digital technology. New fast, flexible and objective 3D reconstruction computer programs are in full development. The research on craniofacial reconstruction since the beginning of the 21st century is presented, highlighting computer-aided 3D facial reconstruction. Employing the newer technologies and permanently evaluating and (re)questioning the obtained results will hopefully lead to more accurate reconstructions.

This book was released on 2015-06-11 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proceedings were designed to bring together researchers who share a common interest in the quantitative description of the biological form. Participants came from very diverse disciplines such as agricultural genetics, botany, entomology, forensics, human anatomy, paleontology, human evolution, primatology, dentistry, etc. The participants applied various methodological approaches that are being increasingly used to describe aspects of the biological form. These techniques include neural networks, Fourier descriptors, shape mapping, genome-wide association studies (GWAS), Riemann curves, surface mapping, etc. A number of the contributions in the proceedings represent state of the art research that reflects advances in that discipline.
Download or read book Forensic Facial Reconstruction Using 3 D Computer Graphics written by Maria Vanezis and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with computerised forensic 3-D facial reconstruction as a means of identification and involves the restoration of the face on the skull in an attempt to achieve a close likeness of the individual when alive. The reconstruction process begins with the biological identification of the skeletal remains, (age, sex, ancestry and build). Facial reconstruction is then carried out and essentially works by building the "face" up from the skull using soft tissue thicknesses at specific locations from existing data. However, it is used as a last resort on skeletonised, badly decomposed or mutilated corpses, when no other information is available; even then it is only accepted as corroborative evidence in court. It is performed in the hope that it may stimulate recognition, and consequently narrow the field of identification, allowing other tests to be carried out, such as radiographic and/or dental comparisons, DNA analysis or other means, to establish positive identification. The advantages of the computerised method over the manual clay reconstruction are speed, rapid editing capability, production of images that can be stored and reconstructions repeated at any time if required. Furthermore, in many cases, the original skull instead of a cast or model may be used for reconstruction because the 3-D computerised procedure is rapid and non invasive. However, the most significant advantage of this technique with regard to the aims and objectives of the thesis is that a number of alternative reconstructions may be produced sequentially for the same skull by using different facial templates from the database that meet the anthropological/biological criteria of the skull. The issues addressed by the study and therefore its main aims are: a) evaluation and b) improvement of the reliability of facial reconstruction using 3-D computer graphics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objectives: The objective of this study was to find out if the soft tissue changes after the correction of dentofacial asymmetry with orthognathic surgery will tend to regress to the original deformity. Materials and Methods: A total of 20 patients were recruited in this retrospective study which was performed at Yale New Haven Hospital and University of Connecticut. Patients were divided into two groups: Experimental (8) and Control (12). Stereophotogrammetric Images were obtained for each patient at five timepoints: (T0) Pre-Surgery, (T1) Post-surgery, (T2) 1 month after, (T3) 6 months after, (T4) 1-year after. Fifteen landmarks were identified on faces of each patient at each timepoint. Each landmark had its own of X, Y, and Z coordinates. The coordinates of each timepoint were then compared within each group and between groups. Results: Statistically significant differences were found for points in the lower chin area (Point 10, 11, 12 and 15) in the transverse plane (X-axis) for experimental patients between T0 and T1. Control patients had statistically significant changes in the transverse plane for Points 1 and 15 when comparing T0 and T1. All the bilateral points in our study were separately analyzed for their vertical (Y) and anterior-posterior (Z) changes over time. For vertical changes in the experimental group, Points 13 and 14 had a statistically significant difference before surgery and at 1-month post-surgery when compared to each other. For vertical changes in the Control group, comparison between Points 8 and 9 at 6-month timepoint were statistically significant. When analyzing changes in anterior-posterior direction, we did not see any statistically significant differences in our Experimental group. However, in the Control group, Points 13 and 14 were statistically significant different at Pre-Surgery, 1-month and 6-months for the Z values. Conclusions: Our data suggests that asymmetry improved significantly after surgery for all the lower chin points in the Experimental group after orthognathic surgery when compared to patients in the Control group. Since we did not see any significant changes occurring post-surgery for the lower chin points in the experimental group, we conclude that the asymmetry of the chin does not regress over time back to its original location in asymmetric patients. No other clinically significant results were observed in this study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "With the rapid development of 3D imaging technology, the wide usage of 3D surface information for research and applications is becoming a convenient reality. This study is focused on a quantified analysis of facial asymmetry of more than 100 3D human faces (individuals). We investigate whether facial asymmetry differs statistically significantly from a bilateral symmetry assumption, and the role of global and local facial asymmetry for gender discrimination."
