Optimization and evaluation of facial recognition models for Williams-Beuren syndrome.

• This study develops six models of facial recognition, EfficientNet-b3, ResNet-50, VGG-16, VGG-16BN, VGG-19, and VGG-19BN, to improve WBS diagnosis. • The VGG-19BN model achieved the best performance, with an accuracy of 95.10% and specificity of 93.42%. The facial recognition model based on VGG-19BN can play a crucial role in the clinical diagnosis of WBS.
