| contents | Rosacea, which is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that manifests with facial redness, papules, and visible blood vessels, often requirs precise and early detection for significantly improving treatment effectiveness. This paper presents new patch-based automatic rosacea detection strategies using the ResNet-18 deep learning framework. The contributions of the proposed strategies come from the following aspects. First, various image pateches are extracted from the facial images of people in different sizes, shapes, and locations. Second, a number of investigation studies are carried out to evaluate how the localized visual information influences the deep learing model performance. Third, thorough experiments are implemented to reveal that several patch-based automatic rosacea detection strategies achieve competitive or superior accuracy and sensitivity than the full-image based methods. And finally, the proposed patch-based strategies, which use only localized patches, inherently preserve patient privacy by excluding any identifiable facial features from the data. The experimental results indicate that the proposed patch-based strategies guide the deep learning model to focus on clinically relevant regions, enhance robustness and interpretability, and protect patient privacy. As a result, the proposed strategies offer practical insights for improving automated dermatological diagnostics. |
