APD-FFNet: a novel explainable deep feature fusion network for automated periodontitis diagnosis on dental panoramic radiography
This is the first feature fusion method specifically devised for periodontitis diagnosis, supported by an expert-curated dataset and advanced explainable artificial intelligence. Its robust accuracy, low hyperparameter sensitivity, and transparent outputs set a new standard for automated periodontal analysis.
