State-of-the-art deep learning approaches for skin lesion recognition often require pretraining on larger and more varied datasets, to overcome the generalization limitations derived from the reduced size of the skin lesion imaging…
Melanoma classification is a serious stage to identify the skin disease. It is considered a challenging process due to the intra-class discrepancy of melanomas, skin lesions low contrast, and the artifacts in the dermoscopy images,…
The clinical diagnosis of skin lesion involves the analysis of dermoscopic and clinical modalities. Dermoscopic images provide a detailed view of the surface structures whereas clinical images offer a complementary macroscopic information.…
Within medical imaging, manual curation of sufficient well-labeled samples is cost, time and scale-prohibitive. To improve the representativeness of the training dataset, for the first time, we present an approach to utilize large amounts…
Convolutional Neural Networks have demonstrated human-level performance in the classification of melanoma and other skin lesions, but evident performance disparities between differing skin tones should be addressed before widespread…
Accurate diagnostics of a skin lesion is a critical task in classification dermoscopic images. In this research, we form a new type of image features, called hybrid features, which has stronger discrimination ability than single method…
Skin lesions are conditions that appear on a patient due to many different reasons. One of these can be because of an abnormal growth in skin tissue, defined as cancer. This disease plagues more than 14.1 million patients and had been the…
Skin cancer can be identified by dermoscopic examination and ocular inspection, but early detection significantly increases survival chances. Artificial intelligence (AI), using annotated skin images and Convolutional Neural Networks…
An ideal learned representation should display transferability and robustness. Supervised contrastive learning (SupCon) is a promising method for training accurate models, but produces representations that do not capture these properties…
