arXiv:2607. 05585v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: FaceMesh2HPO is a framework for classifying facial phenotypic descriptors aligned with the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) to support clinical diagnosis.
arXiv:2610.23730v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent deep facial phenotyping methods can support the recognition of genetic syndromes, but patient images are often scarce and unevenly distributed a...
The paper introduces a unified evaluation framework for face de-identification (FDeID), addressing inconsistencies in current protocols. It presents UtilFace, a demographically balanced benchmark assembled from four large-scale datasets, and HiFD, a hierarchical metric that simultaneously measures identity suppression, multi-level utility preservation, and image quality. Using this framework, the authors compare adversarial, GAN-based, and diffusion-based methods, revealing trade-offs and failure modes that were previously hidden, and they release the benchmark and toolkit for reproducible research.
AI-assisted facial phenotyping supports rare genetic disorder prioritization by retrieving visually similar diagnosed cases from facial image reference databases such as the GestaltMatcher Database (GMDB). Existing GestaltMatcher-based retrieval frameworks compare each test image with individual gallery images in a facial phenotype embedding space.
arXiv:2607. 14932v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Synthetic face datasets have become effective enough to train face recognition models with accuracy rivaling that of models trained on real photographs.
arXiv:2312. 15320v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Individuals with suspected rare genetic disorders often undergo multiple clinical evaluations, imaging studies, laboratory tests, and genetic tests over a prolonged period of time, a process commonly described as the diagnostic odyssey.
