Abstract

The classification of pet skin diseases is becoming more and more necessary due to the increasing demand for early and accurate diagnostics in veterinary healthcare. Complex and diverse skin disease patterns of pets urge advanced models for reliable recognition and diagnosis. In this paper, we propose an approach based on Vision Transformers (ViTs) for the classification of skin diseases in pets. The proposed model would be capable of detecting and categorizing a number of skin diseases efficiently after processing images in such a way that detailed features crucial for accurate classification are captured. The model has been trained on a dataset of annotated images to better generalize and perform. These results will be of very important significance in the diagnosis of different skin diseases found in pets and will contribute a lot to veterinary dermatology while propagating modern deep learning techniques in improving diagnostic accuracy.
