Research Foundation

This project builds upon the comprehensive survey:

Flores, J., & Alzahrani, N. (2025). AI Skin Cancer Detection Across Skin Tones: A Survey of Experimental Advances, Fairness Techniques, and Dataset Limitations. Computers (MDPI). [Submitted]

The survey analyzes over 100 experimental studies on fairness-aware skin cancer detection, providing the theoretical foundation for this production implementation.
