Objectives: The shape is commonly used to describe the objects. State-of-the-art algorithms in medical imaging are predominantly diverging from computer vision, where voxel grids, meshes, point clouds, and implicit surface models are used. This is seen from the growing popularity of ShapeNet (51,300 models) and Princeton ModelNet (127,915 models).

Chronic pain can be complicated by problematic opioid use, which may decrease engagement in care and HIV medication adherence. Pain-related anxiety and catastrophic thinking augment pain severity and interference while driving increased substance use. The acceptability and effect of a music-based smartphone application on negative affect and catastrophic thinking were evaluated in a mixed-methods study among persons living with HIV (PWH) with problematic opioid use and chronic pain.

This study introduces a novel deep learning approach for 3D teeth scan segmentation and labeling, designed to enhance accuracy in computer-aided design (CAD) systems. Our method is organized into three key stages: coarse localization, fine teeth segmentation, and labeling. In the teeth localization stage, we employ a Mask-RCNN model to detect teeth in a rendered three-channel 2D representation of the input scan.
