This research follows up on the former FIDENTIS project. In cooperation with the Department of Anthropology, Faculty of Science, Masaryk University, we aim to develop efficient methods enabling anthropologists to investigate the morphology of human faces. We put emphasis on precision, explainability, and employing human-in-the-loop analytical methods, as the analytical goals are often related to forensic investigation.

Software:
FIDENTIS Analyst II open-source desktop application. Currently, the tool supports several registration methods, similarity measure, IA-based auto-detection of anthropometry-correct significant points (landmarks) and regions, and much more…
FIDENTIS Analyst Web App is an experimental web-based version of the desktop application. Currently, the application is under development and therefore not publicly available yet.
