Aesthetic Analysis and Evaluation of Indo-Ariyan Faces: An Anthropometric Study

Facial symmetry and proportions are key factors in aesthetic evaluations across fields like cosmetic surgery, dermatology, and facial recognition. Traditional measurement methods often rely on subjective analysis, making them prone to inconsistencies. The measure face ratio-F4CE app, an AI-driven tool, provides an innovative solution for precise and objective facial analysis. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the F4CE app in measuring facial symmetry and proportions, with a focus on its ability to accurately assess facial aesthetics using advanced AI algorithms. The F4CE app uses AI to detect facial landmarks, including the eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, chin, and jawline. It measures the proportional relationships between these features and calculates facial symmetry scores. The app also compares these measurements to the golden ratio, a widely recognized standard of facial harmony in aesthetics. A publicly available dataset of 12 patients was analyzed to evaluate the performance and accuracy of the F4CE app. Twenty different measurement tasks were conducted to assess the app's efficacy across all 12 patients. The F4CE app successfully detected the facial landmarks for all 12 patients across the 20 measurement tasks, accurately calculating symmetry and proportions. Its measurements were in close alignment with established aesthetic standards, particularly the golden ratio, offering a comprehensive analysis of facial aesthetics. The F4CE app is a precise and efficient tool for measuring facial symmetry and proportions. Its AI-powered capabilities enable accurate, data-driven assessments that are valuable for professionals in cosmetic surgery, dermatology, and aesthetic medicine, providing personalized and scientifically informed insights.

Beautiful Buttocks: Characteristics and Surgical Techniques

Image aesthetic analysis is a new direction of computer vision, whose purpose is to simulate the visual perception and aesthetic criterion of human being to assess aesthetic value of a given image. Nowadays, due to the popularization of smart phones with built-in cameras, functions like automatic image management and aesthetic guidance in mobile devices are valuable and in great demand. In order to remedy the gap between the large amount of computation and the hardware limitation of mobile devices, an image aesthetic classification and evaluation system using cloud computing is built in this paper. The time consuming parts such as feature extraction and machine learning algorithms are deployed on the virtual machine in the cloud server, while the simple part such as user interface is left for client. In addition, to make full use of the cloud server, a parallel-processing strategy of feature extraction is put to use in the system The result shows that our approach achieves a promising accuracy and is well correlated with the subjective aesthetics evaluation of human. And the system is more efficient and easier to be used in mobile devices with the help of cloud computing.KeywordsImage aestheticsFeature extractionCloud computingAesthetic classificationAesthetic evaluation

Rising educational attainment and changing cultural preferences have substantially altered consumer demand in Chinas interactive entertainment sector. The success of the otome game Love and Deepspace reflects this broader transformation: its advanced 3D rendering, customizable character features, and personalized interaction design have established new standards for female-oriented digital media. Building on this momentum, the developer has expanded into an integrated merchandise ecosystem and deployed cumulative recharge mechanisms to strengthen user engagement and increase monetization. This study conducts an empirical analysis of consumer behavior in the otome game merchandise market using survey data from 100 respondents. A series of statistical tests is applied to evaluate how demographic, behavioral, and perceptual factors shape merchandise consumption. The findings show that demographic characteristics provide limited explanatory power for spending variation, whereas engagement intensity, prior gameplay experience, and aesthetic evaluations of merchandise are the primary determinants of purchase behavior. These results highlight the importance of emotional involvement and visual design in driving otome-related consumption and contribute to a growing body of research on game-based merchandising and fandom-driven markets. The study further offers managerial implications for firms seeking to refine monetization strategies within rapidly expanding female-oriented game ecosystems.

To develop a reliable and easy-to-use method to assess the nasolabial appearance of 18-year-old patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (CLP). Retrospective analysis of nasolabial aesthetics using a 5-point ordinal scale and newly developed photographic reference scale: the Cleft Aesthetic Rating Scale (CARS). Three cleft surgeons and 20 medical students scored the nasolabial appearance on standardized frontal photographs. VU University Medical Center, Amsterdam. Inclusion criteria: 18-year-old patients, unilateral cleft lip and palate, available photograph of the frontal view. history of facial trauma, congenital syndromes affecting facial appearance. Eighty photographs were available for scoring. The interobserver and intraobserver reliability of the CARS for 18-year-old patients when used by cleft surgeons and medical students. The interobserver reliability for the nose and lip together was 0.64 for the cleft surgeons and 0.61 for the medical students. There was an intraobserver reliability of 0.75 and 0.78 from the surgeons and students, respectively, on the nose and lip together. No significant difference was found between the cleft surgeons and medical students in the way they scored the nose ( P = 0.22) and lip ( P = 0.72). The Cleft Aesthetic Rating Scale for 18-year-old patients has a substantial overall estimated reliability when the average score is taken from three or more cleft surgeons or medical students assessing the nasolabial aesthetics of CLP patients.

Based on the concept of the aesthetic field, the article analyzes the three main continents of this field: «aesthetic experience»,«aesthetic object»,and «aesthetics of the third».It provides a historical and theoretical overview of each of these continents, underlying their specific features in terms of their formation and current state. In case of analysis of aesthetic experience, it is important to avoid simplifying it by reducing it to «aesthetic evaluation»,«disinter estedness»,or «aesthetic attitude».The analysis of the aesthetic object shows that understanding it as art has opened up new perspectives for aesthetics, but it has also led to the reduction of aesthetics to the philosophy of art. The analysis of the «aesthetics of the third» phenomenon emphasizes that this continent is currently understood as the everyday aesthetics or the aesthetics of atmosphere, which are characterized by overcoming the concept of the aesthetic subject and the aesthetic object. The article also shows the possibilities of analyzing the three described continents of the aesthetic field from the perspective of Ch. S. Peirce’s ideas about firstness, secondness, and thirdness. The article outlines the prospects for further study of the three continents in aesthetics and concludes by expanding the possibilities of aesthetic analysis methodology.

The aesthetics of the attractive leg are dependent on three principle factors: length, circumference, and shape. Advances in surgical techniques and instrumentation have the ability to predict an aesthetic result in contouring the leg. However, because of patient variability and differing opinions of the surgeon, the leg aesthetics criteria and thus surgical goals have not been clearly defined. We performed an evaluation of Taiwan Chinese female leg aesthetics by using two study groups. Popular fashion models were evaluated and compared with our attractive female population. We noticed subjectively that there are similar leg shapes in both groups. Criteria that contribute to the aesthetics of the attractive legs can be used as guides for doctors and patients to achieve a more aesthetic and predictable leg contour.

One of the most distinctive features-reaching the level of preoccupationof aesthetic analysis in the United States during the past four decades has been an intense, critical, self-conscious, yet constructive attempt to explore the meaning and possibility of the concept of art: what is the essential nature of art in general and the artwork in particular? Can we define 'art' or 'artwork'?1 During the first half of the twentieth century most aestheticians almost took it for granted that providing an answer to this question was the central task of aesthetic theory: to theorize about art meant to seek an understanding of the essential nature of art and to articulate this understanding in a concept or definition, so that if one grasps this concept or definition, one would then know what it means for an object to be a work of art. This knowledge is useful in (1) identifying an object or event as a work of art, (2) explaining the structure of aesthetic experience, and (3) providing a basis for aesthetic interpretation and evaluation.2 But this view was challenged by analytic philosophers like Paul Ziff, Morris Weitz, and William Kennick in the mid-1950s. Weitz, whose essay The Role of Theory in Aesthetics proved to be very influential and left a lasting impact upon the way we now do aesthetics in the United States, has argued that aesthetic theory is not in principle possible: Art, as the logic of the concept shows, has no set of necessary and sufficient properties; hence a theory of it is logically impossible and not merely factually difficult.3 Traditional aesthetic theory labored on the assumption that the concept of art is closed. This is why it sought to capture the essential nature of art in a well-defined formula. But this is a false assumption, Weitz argued, primarily because 'art' is an open concept: there is no essence or a denominator common to all the objects that compose the realm of art. Moreover, by its very nature art is a creative adventure; it is expansive, adventurous; Its ever-present changes and novel

We present a perceptually calibrated system for automatic aesthetic evaluation of photographic images. Our work builds upon the concepts of no-reference image quality assessment, with the main difference being our focus on rating image aesthetic attributes rather than detecting image distortions. In contrast to the recent attempts on the highly subjective aesthetic judgment problems such as binary aesthetic classification and the prediction of an image's overall aesthetics rating, our method aims on providing a reliable objective basis of comparison between aesthetic properties of different photographs. To that end our system computes perceptually calibrated ratings for a set of fundamental and meaningful aesthetic attributes, that together form an "aesthetic signature" of an image. We show that aesthetic signatures can still be used to improve upon the current state-of-the-art in automatic aesthetic judgment, but also enable interesting new photo editing applications such as automated aesthetic analysis, HDR tone mapping evaluation, and providing aesthetic feedback during multi-scale contrast manipulation.
