Claim 16:
17. A computer implemented method of skin diagnosis comprising:
receiving an image, that is a selfie face image from a user mobile device;
performing a plurality (k) of data augmentations to the image to yield k augmented images for processing;
processing each of the k augmented images using a deep neural network to obtain k activation maps for a skin diagnosis, the deep neural network further configured to classify image pixels to determine the skin diagnosis for a skin condition, wherein the deep neural network, which is already trained using a dataset of facial image data comprising selfie face images from user mobile devices, is configured as a regressor and a classifier to determine the skin diagnosis as an integer value on a scale classifying a severity of the skin condition over the image, and is configured to provide an activation map to visualize the skin diagnosis;
defining a final activation map for the image from the k activation maps to visualize the skin diagnosis; and
visualizing the skin diagnosis in association with the image.
