About This Project
Overview
A PyTorch and OpenCV pipeline that detects and classifies acne lesions in photographs — applying object-detection techniques to a real dermatological use case.
Motivation
I wanted to apply object detection to a real dermatological use case rather than another generic classification dataset.
Lessons Learned
Class imbalance between clear skin and lesion regions skewed early results badly — addressing it properly mattered more to final accuracy than any hyperparameter tuning.
