  • Classification of severity (mild/severe) is based on color and texture features.

    • Main Results:

    • The model successfully detects eczema regions.
    • It accurately classifies identified regions as mild or severe.
    • It automatically computes key parameters for the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI).

    Conclusions:

    • The developed model offers an efficient and accurate method for eczema assessment.
    • Automated measurement of EASI components aids both patients and physicians.
    • This technology can improve early intervention and management of eczema.
