Application of Deep Learning to Orthodontics
In recent years, image recognition and natural language processing by deep learning such as convolutional neural network and recurrent neural network attract a lot of attention. In addition, researches which combine image recognition and natural language processing are reported. In our laboratory, we study techniques to apply deep learning to orthodontic treatment in cooperation with Osaka University Dental Hospital. For example, we study predicting necessity of treatment from oral cavity images and generating treatment plan from face images.
