Automatic identification of individuals using deep learning method on panoramic radiographs.
Article in Journal of dental sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Abstract Background/purpose: The dentition shows individual characteristics and dental structures are stable with respect to postmortem decomposition, allowing the dentition to be used as an effective tool in forensic dentistry. We developed an automatic identification system using panoramic radiographs (PRs) with a deep learning method. Materials and methods: In total, 4966 PRs from 1663 individuals with various changes in image characteristics due to various dental treatments were collected. In total, 3303 images were included in the data set used for model training. Vgg16, Vgg19, ResNet50, ResNet101, and EfficientNet models were applied for identification. The precision curves were evaluated. Results: The matching precision rates of all models (Vgg16, Vgg19, ResNet50, ResNet101, and EfficientNet) were examined. Vgg16 was the best model, with a precision of around 80-90% on 200 epochs, using the Top-N metrics concept with 5-15 candidate labels. The model can successfully identify the individual even with low quantities of dental features in 5-10 s. Conclusion: This identification system with PRs using a deep learning method appears useful. This identification system could prove useful not only for unidentified bodies, but also for unidentified wandering elderly people. This project will be beneficial for police departments and government offices and support disaster responses.
