Abstract
The disclosure provides computer systems, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, and methods for determining the presence of a skin indication in a subject. In some aspects the method includes acquiring a hyperspectral imaging data set from a region of interest of a human subject using a hyperspectral imager, and applying the hyperspectral imaging data set against a classifier including a two layered media model, the two layered media model including a first layer of a modeled human tissue overlying a second layer of the modeled human tissue, where the two layered media model has been trained by application of simulated data across a set of optical and geometric properties associated with the presence or the absence of a skin indication, where the two layered media model computes tissue reflectance R from the modeled human tissue by a relationship provided herein.
