We trained a UNet with EfficientNetB0 model through the region of interest-centred circular segmentation labelling process. Mean distance errors (MDEs, mm) of the CNN algorithm was compared with those from human examiners. Successful detection rates (SDRs, per cent) assessed within 1\u20134 mm precision ranges were compared between skeletal and UA landmarks.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The proposed model achieved MDEs of 0.80 \u00b1 0.55 mm for skeletal landmarks and 1.78 \u00b1 1.21 mm for UA landmarks. The mean SDRs for UA landmarks were 72.22 per cent for 2 mm range, and 92.78 per cent for 4 mm range, contrasted with those for skeletal landmarks amounting to 93.43 and 98.71 per cent, respectively. As compared with mean interexaminer difference, however, this model showed higher detection accuracies for geometrically constructed UA landmarks on the nasopharynx (AD2 and Ss), while lower accuracies for anatomically located UA landmarks on the tongue (Td) and soft palate (Sb and St).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The proposed CNN model
