  • Abstract
    This paper introduces a monitoring scheme for discerning the boundary of the tooth in dental operations. In this scheme, tooth structures and dental fillings were discriminated based on their cutting sounds. Support vector machines were employed for classification; and averaged short time Fourier transform coefficients were selected as the features. The results confirmed capability and feasibility of the proposed scheme.
