The model will be deployed and clinical trial tested for real-life patients, under supervision by dermatologists in Nigeria at the University of Nigeria Centre for Excellence for Clinical Trials . A smartphone interface will be created to query a server hosting the model. Patients will then rate its usefulness, while dermatologists evaluate its correctness and accuracy. The findings will be published along with the collected data for future AI researchers.
