A program has been created to recognize criminals and genetic diseases from photos

Programmers from the UK have developed software for building high-precision 3D models of individuals. Technology, as the indicator.ru website writes, can be used in various scenarios of modeling and recognition of human faces.

Physicians can use the technology created within the walls of Imperial College London, as a diagnostic tool to help identify some rare genetic diseases. In particular, Williams syndrome, which is characterized by disturbed facial proportions.
Forensics technology is useful for finding dangerous criminals, wanted for decades - the software can visualize the aging process of the face, that is, lets see what it will look like, for example, in twenty years.

"Our development can be used in computer games, for example, to create animated 3D avatars, such avatars will be created automatically, based on user photos," the scientists say. 

According to them, the potential of the technology application is truly colossal. And all thanks to some innovative features involved in the algorithms. For example, the automatic identification of key details of the face.
