Dental radiographs and photographs in human forensic identification

Abstract: Dentistry can contribute for the identification of human remains after any disasters or crimes in assistance to other medical specialties. The algorithm can be developed by comparing post mortem and ante mortem dental radiographs. This work aims to introduce photographic images in addition to radiographs. In this research a contour and skeleton-based shape extraction as well as matching algorithm for dental images is proposed. An active contour model with selective binary and Gaussian filtering regularised lev… Show more

“…Forensic odontology, as one of the primary identification methods, is a dynamic field which has developed in recent past [12]. A successful conclusion can be brought only if the identification strategy is properly planned by selecting the appropriate forensic diagnostic tools and involving a team of well-trained key experts [13,14]. Developing an automated digital dental identification system is a demanding challenge at present [15].…”

“…Vijayakumari et al, followed a slightly variant approach of matching dental records using both similarity and distance metric as handled in [6]. Dental bitewing radiographs are analyzed using both shape and also appearance [7]. The usage of photograph for human identification in addition with radiographs is detailed in [8].…”
