A statistical shape model of craniosynostosis patients and 100 model instances of each pathology

This dataset is part of the publication "A statistical shape model for radiation-free assessment and classification of craniosynostosis" (M. Schaufelberger et al.). It includes several 3D head models constructed of surface scans of craniosynostosis patients: The full shape model, a texture model, and submodels of four classes: sagittal suture fusion (scaphocephaly), metopic suture fusion (trigonocephaly), coronal suture fusion (brachycephaly and anterior plagiocephaly), and a control model (normocephaly and positional plagiocephaly). Each of the models is available in an .h5 file. We also include 100 mesh instances as a .ply file in a zip file. The model's statistical information can be incorporated into the [Liverpool-York child head model (Dai et al. 2019)](https://doi.org/10.1007/s11263-019-01260-7) as it uses the same vertex order and IDs.
