MPI-IS trains FLAME (2017), a facial shape and expression model, with 3dMD’s real-world 4D pose and expression data.
Date: October 2017 Source: PNAS | Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, doi: 10.1073/pnas.1708207114. Significance: The human face is extraordinarily variable, and the extreme similarity of the faces of identical twins indicates that most of this variability is genetically determined. We have devised an approach to increase the…
University of York and Alder Hey use 3dMD’s real-world Headspace dataset to build the Liverpool-York Head Model (LYHM), the first public 3D morphable model of the full human head.

Abstract: Bra fit is a common quality of life problem for women with breast reconstruction. However, there is a lack of knowledge of how the changes in breast size and shape due to…
KAIST and MPI-IS build a physics-based body model, VSMPL, with 3dMD’s real-world soft-tissue data from Dyna.
MPI-IS builds Dynamic FAUST (2017), a 4D human motion dataset, with 3dMD’s real-world data, presented at CVPR 2017.
University of York and Alder Hey build a 2D craniofacial profile model from 3dMD’s real-world Headspace dataset, introducing a new pose-normalization method for craniosynostosis outcomes.
MPI-IS trains ClothCap (2017), a method for capturing and retargeting clothing in motion, with 3dMD’s 4D real-world body data.
Date: June 2017 Source: Biological Shape Analysis: Proceedings of the 4th International Symposium (ISBSA), pp 249-258. School of Dentistry, UCLA, USA, 19–22 June 2015. Abstract: Facial morphology is the result of mazy interactions between environmental and epigenetic factors that lead to the composition of multiple subunits integrated to function as a whole. In this work, we…
Date: June 2017 (Online). Source: JAMA Pediatrics, doi:10.1001/jamapediatrics.2017.0778. Question: Is there an association between different levels of prenatal alcohol exposure and child craniofacial shape at 12 months? Findings: This cohort study conducted an objective and sensitive craniofacial phenotype analysis of 415 children, which showed an association between prenatal alcohol exposure and craniofacial shape at almost…
