Abstract
Systems, methods and techniques provide for acne localization, counting and visualization. An image is processed using a trained model to identify objects. The model may be a deep learning (e.g. convolutional neural) network configured for object classification with a detection focus on small objects. The image may be a frontal or profile facial image, processed end to end. The model identifies and localizes different types of acne. Instances are counted and visualized such as by annotating the source image. An example annotation is an overlay identifying a type and location of each instance. Counts by acne type assist with scoring. A product and/or service may be recommended in response to the identification of the acne (e.g. the type, localization, counting and/or a score).
