    Abstract: Disclosed herein is method for generating a digital 3D representation of at least a part of an intraoral cavity, the method comprising:
    - recording a plurality of views containing surface data representing at least the geometry of surface points of the part of the intraoral cavity using an intraoral scanner, wherein the surface data also comprises color information;
    - determining a weight for each surface point at least partly based on scores that are measures of belief of that surface point representing a particular type of surface;
    - executing a stitching algorithm that performs weighted stitching of the surface points in said plurality of views to generate the digital 3D representation based on the determined weights; and
    - wherein the scores for the surface points are found by at least one score-finding algorithm, wherein the at least one score-finding algorithm is a machine-learning algorithm trained on color images.

    Abstract: Disclosed is an optical coherence tomography scanner and a method for recording sub-surface scans of an object, wherein a position encoder is arranged in the path of the probing beam of an interferometric system. The encoder pattern is detected in a sequence of A scans at generated for different probing beam positions on the scanned object, the probing beam position and/or inclination for at least one A scan of said sequence of A scans is deducing based on the detected encoder pattern, and the sub-surface scan of the object is generated based on the sequence of A scans taking into account the deduced probing beam position and/or inclination.
