ABSTRACT

In this paper, we propose a 2-stage hybrid ensemble architecture that combines an AI probability map for candidate band localization with traditional curvature tensor extremum tracking to precisely detect the margin line of dental prostheses. To address the black-box nature and hallucination risks of existing end-to-end deep learning methods, our approach ensures the exclusion of deep learning in the final boundary decision. Instead, the final boundary is determined by tracking curvature tensor extrema optimized via a snake optimization algorithm. We also integrated a reverse hybrid option for atypical preparations, a Human-in-the-Loop interface for snapping-based user correction, and an independent FDI module for tooth classification to prevent error propagation. Quantitative evaluation on 182 clinical jaw scans using Hausdorff and Chamfer distances demonstrated that the proposed hybrid approach achieves statistically significant superiority (P<0.05) and robustness compared to existing pure algorithm-based commercial software.
