Correction to: Hierarchical skin lesion image classification with prototypical decision tree (npj Digital Medicine, (2025), 8, 1, (26), 10.1038/s41746-024-01395-z)

Correction to: npj Digital Medicinehttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41746-024-01395-z; published online 14 January 2025 This correction pertains to attribution in the “Class Distance Guided Prototype Learning” section, ensuring proper recognition of the work from Landrieu et al. [38], as we adapt it for addressing hierarchical skin tree model optimization. While reference [38] was included, we need to explicitly credit their foundational work in this context. In the first paragraph of the section, add: Revise: “According to [41], the distortion of..” to “According to [41] and following the formulation in [38], the distortion of..” Revise: “Hence, we introduce a scale..” to “Hence, as introduced in [38], we adopt a scale..” The original Article has been corrected.
