These characteristics influence a person's risk of skin cancer, how skin diseases appear, how well treatments work, and how accurately doctors and artificial intelligence (AI) systems can diagnose skin conditions. However, current methods for classifying these characteristics are often imprecise and rely heavily on subjective assessments. As a result, both healthcare professionals and patients may incorrectly classify skin type, which can lead to inaccurate risk assessments and less personalized care. This study aims to develop and validate AI algorithms that can accurately classify skin pigmentation, skin phototype, and accumulated sun damage using photographs of the skin. Unlike existing approaches, the study combines several
