Determining Aligner-Induced Tooth Movements in Three Dimensions Using Clinical Data of Two Patients by Ignacio Filippon, Christine Tanner, Jeannette A. von Jackowski, Georg Schulz, Tino Töpper, Bert Müller

“…The data on these orthodontic treatments indicate the extent to which actual tooth movement lags behind the treatment plan, as represented by the aligner shapes. The proposed procedure can not only be used to quantify the clinical outcome of the therapy, but also to improve future planning of orthodontic treatments for each specific patient. …”

Anodapter: A Unified Framework for Generating Aligned Anomaly Images and Masks Using Diffusion Models by Minkyoung Shin, Seonggyun Jeong, Yong Seok Heo

“…To address these challenges, we introduce Anodapter, a unified few-shot anomaly generation model that utilizes a single diffusion model to sequentially generate well-aligned anomaly masks and images. Unlike earlier models such as AnomalyDiffusion, which use separate models for mask and image generation, Anodapter integrates both tasks into a single diffusion model through its proposed Switch Adapter, eliminating misalignment and improving realism. …”
