A Novel Study on Alar Mobility of HAN Female by 3dMD Dynamic Surface Imaging System. Y Zhong, Y Zhu, T Jiang et al.
Asian alar anatomy has great distinction from Caucasian, processing conspicuous alar movement and damaging alar aesthetic dynamically. This novel study defined alar mobility by three-dimensional anthropometric analysis, providing objective references for alar dynamic aesthetic and arousing plastic surgeons’ attention on keeping balance of static and dynamic aesthetic in rhinoplasty.
Projection-wise Disentangling for Fair and Interpretable Representation Learning: Application to 3D Facial Shape Analysis. X Liu, B Li, E Bron, W Niessen, E Wolvius, G Roshchupkin.
The proposed method was evaluated on the analysis of 3D facial shape and patient characteristics (N=5011). Experiments showed that this conceptually simple method achieved state-of-the-art fair prediction performance and interpretability, showing its great potential for clinical applications.
Facial asymmetry assessment in skeletal Class III patients with spatially-dense geometric morphometrics. Y Fan, W He, G Chen, G Song, H Matthews, P Claes, R Jiang, T Xu.
Soft tissue asymmetry is predominately presented in the lower-third of the face in skeletal Class III patients and with various variations on other facial anatomical regions. Morphometric techniques and computer intensive analysis have allowed sophisticated quantification and visualization of the pointwise asymmetry on the full face.
Beyond BMI for self-estimates of body size and shape: A new method for developing stimuli correctly calibrated for body composition. N Maalin, S Mohamed, RSS Kramer, et al.
A potential contributory factor to the rise in obesity is the failure of people to recognise weight gain. If we, or our health services, cannot accurately index body size, then the appropriate compensatory behaviours which might reduce weight will not be undertaken.
3D human tongue reconstruction from single “in-the-wild” images. S Ploumpis, S Moschoglou, V Triantafyllou, S Zafeiriou.
In this work, we presented the first pipeline which is able to perform 3D head and tongue reconstruction from a single image. To achieve this, we collected the first diverse tongue dataset with various tongue shapes and positions which we make publicly available to the research community.
Posture-Invariant 3D Human Hand Statistical Shape Model. Y Yang, T Yuan, T Huysmans, WS Elkhuizen, F Tajdari, Y Song.
It is concluded that the proposed posture correction approach can effectively improve the accuracy of the hand SSM and therefore enables its wide usage in human-integrated digital twin applications.

An exploratory study of bust measurements during running using 4D scanning technology. J Pei, L Griffin, SP Ashdown, J Fan, B Juhnke, C Curry.
The purpose of this research was to introduce the use of 4D scanning technology to understand breast shape in motion. Twenty-six female participants who identified themselves as wearing Missy Size 18 were recruited for scanning. Three most common bust measurements were tracked in dynamic states and compared with the static state.
