The assessment of facial symmetry, after mandibular reconstruction, currently relies on subjective esthetic by an evaluator. present study aimed to compare conventional with quantitative evaluation three-dimensional (3D) stereophotogrammetry cosmetic symmetry. This retrospective enrolled 20 patients who underwent reconstruction free fibula flap segmental resection between 2014 and 2018. Subject...

MOTIVATION We introduce the iRMSD, a new type of RMSD, independent from any structure superposition and suitable for evaluating sequence alignments of proteins with known structures. RESULTS We demonstrate that the iRMSD is equivalent to the standard RMSD although much simpler to compute and we also show that it is suitable for comparing sequence alignments and benchmarking multiple sequence ...

We introduce a new measure for comparing protein structures that is especially applicable to analysis of molecular dynamics simulation results. The new measure generalizes the widely used root-meansquared-deviation (RMSD) measure from three dimensional to n-dimensional Euclidean space, where n equals the number of atoms in the protein molecule. The new measure shows that despite significant flu...

Figure 1. The docking of guanine to purine-nucleoside phosphorylase. The figure shows the RMSD (root mean squared deviation) from the crystal structure versus the interaction energy (more negative is most favourable). The top ten solutions are shown in the box with the minimized crystal structure ranked no. 5. An image of the top five generated solutions in the protein binding site shows that d...

We present a single channel data driven method for non-intrusive estimation of full-band reverberation time and full-band direct-toreverberant ratio. The method extracts a number of features from reverberant speech and builds a model using a recurrent neural network to estimate the reverberant acoustic parameters. We explore three configurations by including different data and also by combining...

Protein receptor conformations, obtained from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, have become a promising treatment of its explicit flexibility in molecular docking experiments applied to drug discovery and development. However, incorporating the entire ensemble of MD conformations in docking experiments to screen large candidate compound libraries is currently an unfeasible task. Clustering a...

PURPOSE The study aimed to identify the accuracy and reproducibility of preparations made by gypsum materials of various colors using quantitative and semi-quantitative three-dimensional (3D) approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS A titanium maxillary first molar preparation was created as reference dataset (REF). Silicone impressions were duplicated from REF and randomized into 6 groups (n=8). Gyps...
