Computer-based method to determine optimal sunscreen filter composition

Abstract

The present invention relates to sunscreen filter composition development. In order to efficiently determine a sunscreen filter composition, a computer-implemented method (200) is provided for determining a composition comprising one or more UV-filter substances, the method comprising the steps of: a) providing (210), via an input unit, input data that comprises: a sunscreen performance target profile comprising a minimum product requirement of the composition; and a set of optimization objective parameters that comprises two or more optimization objective parameters; b) performing (220), by a processing unit, a multi-objective optimizing process on a computational model to determine a set of Pareto-efficient solutions, wherein each solution is a composition of substances to form the composition such that the composition meets the minimum product requirement; process and each solution is Pareto-efficient with respect to the set of optimization objective parameters; and c) providing (230), via an output unit, at least one of the determined composition of substances, which is preferably usable for guiding the production of a sunscreen product.
