A novel method for 3D face symmetry reference plane based on weighted Procrustes analysis algorithm

Abstract Background We aimed to establish a novel method, using the weighted Procrustes analysis (WPA) algorithm, which assigns weight to facial anatomical landmarks, to construct a three-dimensional facial symmetry reference plane (SRP) for mandibular deviation patients. Methods Three-dimensional f...
