The skin cancer classification using deep convolutional neural network

Multimedia Tools and Applications, 2018

This paper addresses the demand for an intelligent and rapid classification system of skin cancer using contemporary highly-efficient deep convolutional neural network. In this paper, we mainly focus on the task of classifying the skin cancer using ECOC SVM, and deep convolutional neural network. RGB images of the skin cancers are collected from the Internet. Some collected images have noises such as other organs, and tools. These images are cropped to reduce the noise for better results. In this paper, an existing, and pre-trained AlexNet convolutional neural network model is used in extracting features. A ECOC SVM clasifier is utilized in classification the skin cancer. The results are obtained by executing a proposed algorithm with a total of 3753 images, which include four kinds of skin cancers images. The implementation result shows that maximum values of the average accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity are 95.1 (squamous cell carcinoma), 98.9 (actinic keratosis), 94.17 (squamous cell carcinoma), respectively. Minimum values of the average in these measures are 91.8 (basal cell carcinoma), 96.9 (Squamous cell carcinoma), and 90.74 (melanoma), respectively.

Deep Learning based Skin Cancer Classifier using MobileNet

International Journal for Research in Applied Science & Engineering Technology (IJRASET), 2022

Skin cancer is a major problem faced by the public and it has been on the rise since the advent of global warming. The erosion of ozone has led to the Sun's ultraviolet rays to directly reach the earth and cause many skin diseases. Primary sources of diagnosis include external examination and biopsy, histopathological analysis and dermoscopic analysis. These methods need skilled individuals or else the accuracy of diagnosis will be very low. If the skin cancer is not detected early, it may be lethal to the patient. As the cancer is external, we can use the images captured of the lesions for analysis. We propose a seven-way skin cancer classifier algorithm based on convolutional neural networks that will give results comparable to skin specialists in the diagnosis of skin cancer from skin lesion images. Transfer learning is a tool at our disposal to improve the accuracy of our system by using pre-trained models. TheHAM10000 dataset is a collection of 10000 dermoscopic images of skin lesions which can be used to train the model. We can use the MobileNet model on the dataset to build a model. We measured the accuracy of the model as categorical, top-2 and top 3 and obtained a categorical accuracy of 85%, top-2 accuracy of 91% and top-3 accuracy of 96%. This tool can assist doctors in early detection of skin cancer.

Accurate skin cancer diagnosis based on convolutional neural networks

Indonesian Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2022

Although melanoma is not the most common type of skin cancer, it is supposed to extend to other areas of the body if not early diagnosed. Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer and accounts for about 75% of deaths associated with skin cancer. The present study introduces an automated technique for skin cancer prediction, detection, and diagnosis including trending noninvasive and nonionizing techniques that combines deep learning methods to diagnose melanoma with high accuracy. Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) using medical images is utilized to distinguish benign and malignant tumors, which can assist physicians in early identification of symptoms, thus lowering the mortality rate. The CAD system consists of four phases; detection of the region of interest (RoI), using data augmentation techniques, processing RoI using convolutional neural network (CNN) to extract the most important features, and finally the extracted CNN features are input to a support vector machine (SVM) classifier to decode the two classes benign (B) and malignant (M). Two datasets, ISIC and CPTAC-CM, were utilized to train the CNNs. GoogleNet, ResNet-50, AlexNet, and VGG19 were investigated and compared. The accuracy of the proposed CAD system has reached 99.8% for ISIC database and 99.9% for CPTAC-CM database.

The Development of a Skin Cancer Classification System for Pigmented Skin Lesions Using Deep Learning

Biomolecules, 2020

Recent studies have demonstrated the usefulness of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to classify images of melanoma, with accuracies comparable to those achieved by dermatologists. However, the performance of a CNN trained with only clinical images of a pigmented skin lesion in a clinical image classification task, in competition with dermatologists, has not been reported to date. In this study, we extracted 5846 clinical images of pigmented skin lesions from 3551 patients. Pigmented skin lesions included malignant tumors (malignant melanoma and basal cell carcinoma) and benign tumors (nevus, seborrhoeic keratosis, senile lentigo, and hematoma/hemangioma). We created the test dataset by randomly selecting 666 patients out of them and picking one image per patient, and created the training dataset by giving bounding-box annotations to the rest of the images (4732 images, 2885 patients). Subsequently, we trained a faster, region-based CNN (FRCNN) with the training dataset and check...

Detection of Skin Cancer Based on Skin Lesion Images Using Deep Learning

Healthcare

An increasing number of genetic and metabolic anomalies have been determined to lead to cancer, generally fatal. Cancerous cells may spread to any body part, where they can be life-threatening. Skin cancer is one of the most common types of cancer, and its frequency is increasing worldwide. The main subtypes of skin cancer are squamous and basal cell carcinomas, and melanoma, which is clinically aggressive and responsible for most deaths. Therefore, skin cancer screening is necessary. One of the best methods to accurately and swiftly identify skin cancer is using deep learning (DL). In this research, the deep learning method convolution neural network (CNN) was used to detect the two primary types of tumors, malignant and benign, using the ISIC2018 dataset. This dataset comprises 3533 skin lesions, including benign, malignant, nonmelanocytic, and melanocytic tumors. Using ESRGAN, the photos were first retouched and improved. The photos were augmented, normalized, and resized during ...

Skin cancer classification computer system development with deep learning

2020

Melanoma is a deadly form of skin cancer that is often undiagnosed or misdiagnosed as a benign skin lesion. Its early detection is extremely important, since the life of patients with melanoma depends on accurate and early diagnosis of the disease. However, doctors often rely on personal experience and assess each patient's injuries based on a personal examination. Clinical studies allow us to get the accuracy of the diagnosis of melatoma from 65 to 80 percents, which was a good result for some time. However, modern research claims that the use of dermoscopic images in diagnosis significantly increases the accuracy of diagnosis of skin lesions. The visual differences between melanoma and benign skin lesions can be very small, making diagnosis difficult even for an expert doctor. Recent advances in the use of artificial intelligence methods in the analysis of medical images have made it possible to consider the development of intelligent medical diagnostic systems based on visualization as a very promising direction that will help the doctor in making more effective decisions about the health of patients and making a diagnosis at an early stage and in adverse conditions. In this paper, we propose an approach to solving the problem of classification of skin diseases, namely, melanoma at an early stage, based on deep learning. In particular, a solution to the problem of classification of a dermoscopic image containing either malignant or benign skin lesions is proposed. For this purpose, the deep neural network architecture was developed and applied to image processing. Computer experiments on the ISIC data set have shown that the proposed approach provides 92% accuracy on the test sample, which is significantly higher than other algorithms in this data set have shown.

Skin Cancer Detection with the Aid of Deep Learning

International Journal for Research in Applied Science & Engineering Technology (IJRASET), 2022

Skin cancer is now regarded as one of the most dangerous types of cancer seen in humans. Clinical screening is followed by dermoscopic analysis and histological testing in the diagnosis of melanoma. Melanoma is a type of skin cancer that is highly treatable if caught early. Effective segmentation of skin lesions in dermoscopy pictures can increase skin disease categorization accuracy, giving dermatologists a powerful tool for studying pigmented skin lesions. The goal of the research is to create an automated classification system for skin cancer utilising photos of skin lesions that is based on image processing techniques. Deep Learning models embed different neural networks, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), which are well-known for capturing spatial and temporal correlations. with the use of appropriate filters in an image Individual transformational aspects that are limited by the data augmentation procedure derive useful and particular data for training the algorithm to make attractive predictions.

A Deep CNN Model for Skin Cancer Detection and Classification

Computer Science Research Notes, 2021

Skin cancer is one of the most dangerous types of cancers that affect millions of people every year. The detection of skin cancer in the early stages is an expensive and challenging process. In recent studies, machine learning-based methods help dermatologists in classifying medical images. This paper proposes a deep learning-based model to detect and classify skin cancer using the concept of deep Convolution Neural Network (CNN). Initially, we collected a dataset that includes four skin cancer image data before applying them in augmentation techniques to increase the accumulated dataset size. Then, we designed a deep CNN model to train our dataset. On the test data, our model receives 95.98% accuracy that exceeds the two pre-train models, GoogleNet by 1.76% and MobileNet by 1.12%, respectively. The proposed deep CNN model also beats other contemporaneous models while being computationally comparable.
