The incidence of malignant melanoma continues to increase worldwide. This cancer can strike at any age; it is one of the leading causes of loss of life in young persons. Since this cancer is visible on the skin, it is potentially detectable…

Malignant melanoma has one of the most rapidly increasing incidences in the world and has a considerable mortality rate. Early diagnosis is particularly important since melanoma can be cured with prompt excision. Dermoscopy images play an…

Dermatologists often diagnose or rule out early melanoma by evaluating the follow-up dermoscopic images of skin lesions. However, existing algorithms for early melanoma diagnosis are developed using single time-point images of lesions.…

In this article, we describe the design and implementation of a publicly accessible dermatology image analysis benchmark challenge. The goal of the challenge is to sup- port research and development of algorithms for automated diagnosis of…

This manuscript addresses the problem of the automatic lesion boundary detection in dermoscopy, using deep neural networks. An approach is based on the adaptation of the U-net convolutional neural network with skip connections for lesion…

Existing studies for automated melanoma diagnosis are based on single-time point images of lesions. However, melanocytic lesions de facto are progressively evolving and, moreover, benign lesions can progress into malignant melanoma.…

Melanoma is amongst most aggressive types of cancer. However, it is highly curable if detected in its early stages. Prescreening of suspicious moles and lesions for malignancy is of great importance. Detection can be done by images captured…

Automatic skin lesion segmentation on dermoscopic images is an essential step in computer-aided diagnosis of melanoma. However, this task is challenging due to significant variations of lesion appearances across different patients. This…

Segmentation is a key stage in dermoscopic image processing, where the accuracy of the border line that defines skin lesions is of utmost importance for subsequent algorithms (e.g., classification) and computer-aided early diagnosis of…

Melanoma is a type of skin cancer with the most rapidly increasing incidence. Early detection of melanoma using dermoscopy images significantly increases patients' survival rate. However, accurately classifying skin lesions by eye,…

Skin cancer is the most common cancer worldwide, with melanoma being the deadliest form. Dermoscopy is a skin imaging modality that has shown an improvement in the diagnosis of skin cancer compared to visual examination without support. We…

In this paper, we studied extensively on different deep learning based methods to detect melanoma and skin lesion cancers. Melanoma, a form of malignant skin cancer is very threatening to health. Proper diagnosis of melanoma at an earlier…

Early detection of skin cancer, particularly melanoma, is crucial to enable advanced treatment. Due to the rapid growth in the numbers of skin cancers, there is a growing need of computerized analysis for skin lesions. The state-of-the-art…

Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer. While curable with early detection, only highly trained specialists are capable of accurately recognizing the disease. As expertise is in limited supply, automated systems capable of…

During the last years, computer vision-based diagnosis systems have been widely used in several hospitals and dermatology clinics, aiming at the early detection of malignant melanoma tumor, which is among the most frequent types of skin…

Skin cancer is the most common cancer in the existing world constituting one-third of the cancer cases. Benign skin cancers are not fatal, can be cured with proper medication. But it is not the same as the malignant skin cancers. In the…

Skin lesion segmentation is one of the crucial steps for an efficient non-invasive computer-aided early diagnosis of melanoma. This paper investigates how color information, besides saliency, can be used to determine the pigmented lesion…
