关于女性脸蛋谁比较漂亮，以后不用争的面红耳赤了，因为两位澳洲科学家发明一套电脑软件 可帮外貌评分，可以测量出每个女子脸蛋的漂亮程度，谁比较美，立见高下。他们的这项发明是统整模特儿、演艺人员以及全球各地二百多位脸型的外观和比例作为准绳，测量一个人的脸蛋是否符合漂亮的标准。www.csuchen.de( @9 I) B8 C8 x0 f& Y- Q

Dr Piccardi said one use might be for plastic surgery patients who were unsure whether modifications suggested by their doctor would improve their attractiveness. While the software has been developed only to assess women, it could be adapted to rate men.: d$ M, a; x$ ]6 i- [
