Abstract

The analysis of facial appearance is significant to an early diagnosis of medical genetic diseases. The fast development of image processing and machine learning techniques facilitates the detection of facial dysmorphic features. This paper is a survey of the recent studies developed for the screening of genetic abnormalities across the facial features obtained from two dimensional and three dimensional images.
