The paper "Optimising for the Unknown: Domain Alignment for Cephalometric Landmark Detection" presents a method for locating cephalometric landmarks on X‑ray images. It introduces a domain alignment strategy that includes a regional facial extraction module and an X‑ray artefact augmentation procedure. In the 2024 CL‑Detection MICCAI Challenge, the approach achieved the best mean radial error (1.186 mm) and ranked third in the 2 mm success detection rate (82.04 %).

arXiv:2608. 10346v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although advancements in face landmark detection (FLD) methods continue to push performance boundaries, they overlook two major functional limitations: (1) different network parameters need to be trained independently for each ``$N$-point'' benchmark dataset, and (2) a model trained on an ``$N$-point'' dataset reliably outputs only the $N$ landmarks.

Palm-vein recognition is a fine-grained biometric task in which both local vascular texture and the global layout of the vessel tree carry discriminative information, while public datasets remain limited. We propose a topology-aware global-local backbone that combines multi-scale local features, a structureguided directional stream built on a fixed Sobel-magnitude edge prior, and a four-direction state-space scan global pathway within six Topology-Aware Blocks.
