Claim One:
1. A computer-implemented method for determining from a series of pixels in an image of external cranio-facial soft tissue whether a subject is likely to be affected by a genetic disorder, the computer-implemented method comprising: processing, with processing circuitry, a plurality of vectors derived from information extracted from cranio-facial images of geographically dispersed individuals having the genetic disorder; implementing, with the processing circuitry, a cranio-facial comparison of the vectors derived from the geographically dispersed individuals with one or more vectors derived from a cranio-facial image of the subject, and without visually comparing the cranio-facial image of the subject with the cranio-facial images of the geographically dispersed individuals; and determining, with the processing circuitry, based on the comparison and without reference to the discernible cranio-facial image of the subject, when a vector in the one or more vectors is indicative of the subject meeting a threshold of being likely to be affected by the genetic disorder.
