Abstract
A system and a method for training and utilizing deep convolutional neural networks to perform diagnostic and image enhancement operations on images of dentition uses digital images and other auxiliary parameters as inputs for a convolutional neural network. The neural network can output a tooth segmentation map, tooth identifiers, a probability map indicating the presence of caries, cavities or other dental anomalies/conditions, and recommended parameters for use in image enhancement algorithms.
