It employed Local as View (LaV) paradigm of database integration so as to reduce its cost as well as offer the local sources a degree of independence. The developed model was implemented as web service using JEE and some software development tools with a number of heterogeneous databases as a case study.

Research on the application of deep learning models to skin cancer diagnosis has shown success as models outperform medical experts [1]. However, concerns on uncertainty in classifiers and difficulty in approximating uncertainty has caused limited adoption of CNNs in Computer-aided diagnostic systems (CADs) in health care. This research propose selective classification to increase confidence in CNN models for skin cancer diagnosis. The methodology is based on SoftMax response(SR), MC dropout and risk-coverage performance evaluation metric. Risk-coverage curves gives physicians and dermatologist information about the expected rate of misclassification by a model. This enable them to measure the reliability of the classifier’s predictions and inform their decision during skin cancer diagnosis....

Risk-coverage curves gives physicians and dermatologist information about the expected rate of misclassification by a model. This enable them to measure the reliability of the classifier's predictions and inform their decision during skin cancer diagnosis. MC dropout uncertainty estimate was shown to increase accuracy for Melanoma detection by 1.48%. The proposed selective classifier achieved increase melanoma detection. The sensitivity of melanoma increased by 9.91% and 9.73% after selective classification at a coverage of 0.7. This study showed that selective classification and uncertainty estimation can be combined to promote adoption of CNNs in CADs for skin lesions classification.

The amount and kind of data being stored and transferred was changing but technologies available for data storage and analysis could not keep up with this explosion. This is big data and it was a problem. Hadoop, Map Reduce and Spark represent efforts by toward solving this problem.
