چکیده

Categorization of facial wrinkles is used in dermatology studies to determine the efficacy of a certain treatment over a certain period of time. These studies, however, are limited by the fact that when dermatologists assign these categorizations, it is done so through qualitative, in-vivo observation. The objective of this study was to train a computer to categorize nasolabial wrinkles into one of four categories based on one image of the patients face. Preliminary results suggest that the computer will be able to correctly categorize category 1, 2, 3, and 4 wrinkles with 88.2%, 57.3%, 26.2%, and 80% success, respectively.
