Özet
Due to its anatomical uniqueness, the frontal sinus (FS) shows significant inter-individual differences by ancestry, age, and sex, making it useful for preliminary identification processes. This study aims to estimate sex using machine learning (ML) algorithms and artificial neural networks (ANN) applied to morphometric data from FS computed tomography (CT) images. This retrospective study analysed CT scans of 338 females and 338 males aged 18–65. FS measurements comprised sinus floor anteroposterior length, volume, area, height, depth, width, and anterior wall thickness (AWT). Sex estimation was performed using several ML algorithms, including Linear Discriminant Analysis, Quadratic Discriminant Analysis, Logistic Regression, Extra Trees Classifier, Decision Tree, Random Forest, k-Nearest Neighbours, and Gaussian Naive Bayes. Additionally, a multilayer perceptron classifier, representing ANN models …
