AI‑driven Forensic Analysis of 3D Facial Scans
Shape the next generation of forensic‑ready AI for 3D facial analysis.
Partners:
- Institute of Anthropology MU: Domain experts in forensic anthropology.
- Ivy Assistant: Gamete‑donor phenotype matching in assisted reproduction.
What you’ll do
- Build human‑in‑the‑loop AI for 3D polygonal surfaces (graph‑CNNs, multimodal fusion of polygonal geometry, texture, metadata).
- Tackle forensic‑oriented tasks: age‑progression/prediction, expression‑invariant recognition, population clustering.
- Translate research into real‑world impact, e.g., phenotype matching for assisted reproduction or forensic investigation.
Why it’s unique
- Analytical methods must be explainable and/or driven by anthropometric rules such as genetic factors.
- Direct 3D processing instead of obvious 2D re‑projection methods.
- Access to a large, proprietary 3D facial scan repository, Ivy Assistant’s donor‑matching platform, and the open‑source FIDENTIS Analyst II toolkit for rapid prototyping.
Expected knowledge or interests
- Strong background in AI/ML modelling (deep learning, graph networks).
- Computer graphics experience is an advantage.
Funding
- Standard FI MU PhD salary.
- Additional project‑based supplements are possible.
