Smile Reproducibility and Its Relationship to Self-Perceived Smile Attractiveness. D Dobreva, N Gkantidis, D Halazonetis, C Verna, G Kanavakis.

Our results show that lip morphology during smiling is highly consistent among young adults. Females presented higher consistency in the shape of the smile, including lip morphology, compared to males. Self-perceived smile attractiveness was not associated to smile consistency.

Development of a maxillofacial virtual surgical system based on biomechanical parameters of facial soft tissue. M Cheng, Y Zhuang, H Zhao et al.

In this study, a physical model of facial soft tissue based on real biomechanical parameters was constructed, and a haptics-enabled virtual surgical system was developed to simulate incision-making process on facial soft tissue and to help maxillofacial surgery training.

The Effects of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis on Axial Rotation of the Spine: A Study of Twisting Using Surface Topography. A Thakur, JH Heyer, E Wong, HJ Hillstrom, B Groisser, K Page, C Gmelich, ME Cunningham, RF Widmann, MT Hresko.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of scoliosis on axial range of motion. Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients and asymptomatic controls were scanned in a topographic scanner while twisting maximally to the left and right.

Articulated Objects in Free-form Hand Interaction. Z Fan, O Taheri, D Tzionas, M Kocabas, M Kaufmann, MJ Black, O Hilliges.

Introducing ARCTIC – the first dataset of free-form interactions of hands and articulated objects. ARCTIC has 1.2M images paired with accurate 3D meshes for both hands and for objects that move and deform over time. The dataset also provides hand-object contact information.
