Nose Shape Categorization and Its Impact on Design in Head Mounted Displays. TM Schnieders, K Bredenkamp, S La Rosa.

This study with 1736 subjects evaluates how Martin and Saller’s nasal index correlates to a more comprehensive exploration of nose shape variables using Principal component analysis (PCA) and nonparametric bivariate correlation analysis in the context of the design of head-mounted displays (HMDs).

A new method to orient a 3-dimensional facial model to natural head position: A preliminary report on accuracy and reproducibility, AA Yin, Y Dong, X Zhang, BQ Song, SZ Bai.

To establish and validate a novel method to orient a 3-dimensional (3D) facial model to natural head position (NHP) in a stereophotogrammetric system using a 2-dimensional frontal full-face photograph of NHP.

Thermal facial image analyses reveal quantitative hallmarks of aging and metabolic diseases. Z Yu, Y Zhou, K Mao, B Pang, K Wang, T Jin, H Zheng, H Zhai, Y Wang, X Xu, H Liu, Y Wang, JDJ Han.

We collected thermal and 3dMD facial images of 2,811 Han Chinese individuals 20–90 years old, developed the ThermoFace method to automatically process and analyze images, and then generated thermal age and disease prediction models.
