Reliable detection of eczema areas for fully automated assessment of eczema severity from digital camera images

چکیده
Assessing the severity of eczema in clinical research requires face-to-face skin examination by trained staff. Such approaches are resource-intensive for participants and staff, challenging during pandemics, prone to inter- intra-observer variation. Computer vision algorithms have been proposed automate assessment using digital camera images. However, they often require human intervention detect lesions cannot automatically assess from real-world images an end-to-end pipeline.We developed a model data augmentation pixel-level segmentation on 1345 provided dermatologists. We evaluated quality obtained compared that clinicians, robustness varying imaging conditions encountered real-life images, such as lighting, focus, blur performance downstream prediction when detected lesions.The lesion detection increased approximately 25% 40%, respectively, our previous model. The remained unchanged. Use alternative specialist labelling showed par with is used.

The Dyshidrotic Eczema Area and Severity Index - A score developed for the assessment of dyshidrotic eczema.
BACKGROUND Dyshidrotic eczema of the palms and soles is a common condition, which can be rather resistant to treatment. Therapy studies and their comparability are of clinical importance. OBJECTIVE As standardized assessment methods for the severity of this particular form of eczema are lacking, we developed a severity index for dyshidrotic eczema. METHODS The Dyshidrotic Eczema Area and Se...

متن کاملNon-destructive Method for Estimating Biomass of Plants Using Digital Camera Images
Abstract Plant growth and biomass assessments are required in production and research. Such assessments are followed by major decisions (e.g., harvest timing) that channel resources and influence outcomes. In research, resources required to assess crop status affect other aspects of experimentation and, therefore, discovery. Destructive harvests are important because they influence treatment s...
