Abstract
Provided herein are apparatuses (e.g., systems) and methods for automatically assessing a segmented 3D dental model. The segmented 3D dental model may be classified by a trained machine learning classifier (a trained neural network). In some cases, the segmented 3D dental model may be classified as a passing (acceptable) or failing (unacceptable) model. The machine learning classifier may be trained with labeled 3D dental models that illustrate passing and failing segmented 3D dental models.
