摘要：The purpose of Forensic Dentistry is to identify the persons based on their Dental records. In this paper, a prototype for Dental CT image shape extraction technique is presented. The main goal of this approach is to make use of the result of this methodology as an initial step in an automated Dental identification system. The proposed algorithm consists of three stages. The first stage is pre-processing. The second one involves the integral projection method for partitioning the upper, lower jaw and individual tooth separately. The third stage is applying connected component labeling to the partitioned result to extract the shape. Experimental results show that this algorithm achieves robust, high accuracy and requires less computation time.
