Skin tone analysis through skin tone map generation with optical approach and deep learning via Wiley

Skin tone assessment is critical in both cosmetic and medical fields, yet traditional methods like the individual typology angle (ITA) have limitations, such as sensitivity to illuminants and insensitivity to skin redness.

This study introduces an automated image-based method for skin tone mapping by applying optical approaches and deep learning.

The results showed that skin tone maps generated under the same lighting conditions as the image acquisition (D65) provided the highest accuracy, with a color difference of around 6.

Despite the need to measure the illuminant spectrum and for further physiological validation, the proposed approach shows potential for enhancing skin tone assessment.
