Abstract
In the recent decade, deep neural networks have enjoyed rapid development in various domains, including medicine. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs), deep neural network structures commonly used for image interpretation, brought the breakthrough in computer vision and became state-of-the-art techniques for various image recognition tasks, such as image classification, object detection, and semantic segmentation. In this chapter, the authors provide an overview of deep learning algorithms and review available literature for dental image analysis with methods based on CNNs. The present study is focused on the problems of landmarks and teeth detection and classification, as these tasks comprise an essential part of dental image interpretation both in clinical dentistry and in human identification systems based on the dental biometrical information.
