We exhibit an data graphic poster that emulates the style of historic hand-made visualizations of the 18th–19th century. Our visualization uses real data and employs style elements such as an emulation of ink lines, hatching and cross-hatching, appropriate typesetting, and unique style of computer-assisted facial drawings.

Local flaps are the standard procedure to reconstruct facial defects. As it occurs in any surgical procedure, the incision should be planned so that scars are located in the minimum skin tension lines. We report two cases of O to Z flaps in the supra and infraciliary regions. One of them is a hatchet flap.

─ This article summarizes the most important research projects developed in thearea of recognitions y stemsusing facial images. It presents the description of the principal lines of study about people identification systems using face recognition. Furthermore, it contains a synthesis of recent mathematical techniques for pattern sextraction in these systems.

One of the major advantages of recent e-learning systems is that learning-logs are available. By looking at the learninglogs, teachers can obtain learning processes of learners. However, the teachers cannot know facial expressions of the learners and the objects in course materials that the learners focused on while the learners use the e-learning system. In a classroom lecture, it is very impo...

Introduction: Facial expression to pain is an important pain indicator; however, facial movements look unresponsive when perceiving mild pain. The present study investigates whether pain magnitude modulates the relationship between subjective pain rating and an observer’s evaluation of facial expression.  Methods: Twelve healthy volunteers were recruited to obtain 108 samples for pa...

the occurrence of mast cells is studied in the normal facial nerve and in the facial nerve post mortem exam of patients with chronic suppurative otitis media without associated facial paralysis. a small number of mast cells were found in the normal facial nerve. these cells were usually located in close proximity to the endoneural and epineural blood vessels. the number of mast cells was increa...

A reliable and accurate biometric identification system must be able to distinguish individuals even in situations where their biometric signatures are very similar. However, the strong similarity in the facial appearance of twins has complicated facial feature based recognition and has even compromised commercial face recognition systems. This paper addresses the above problem and proposes two...

BACKGROUND Facial laser resurfacing and chemodenervation with botulinum toxin type A are used independently as means of nonsurgical facial rejuvenation. Recent reports in the literature have described combining these 2 therapies, claiming improved and longer-lasting laser resurfacing results. To date, no scientific investigation has been undertaken to prove or disprove this theory. DESIGN Ins...
