  • Patent number: 12230062
    Abstract: Digital imaging systems and methods are described for analyzing pixel data of an image of a skin area of a user for determining dark eye circles. A plurality of training images of a plurality of individuals are aggregated, each of the training images comprising pixel data of a respective skin area of an individual. A dark eye circles model, trained with the pixel data, is operable to output, across a range of a dark eye circles scale, dark eye circles values associated with a degree of dark eye circles. An image of a user comprising pixel data of at least a portion of a user skin area is received and analyzed, by the dark eye circles model, to determine a user-specific dark eye circles value of the user skin area. A user-specific electronic recommendation addressing at least one feature identifiable within the pixel data is generated and rendered, on a display screen of a user computing device.
