Interpretability is essential in medical imaging to ensure that clinicians can comprehend and trust artificial intelligence models. In this paper, we propose a novel interpretable approach that combines attribute regularization of the…

Melanoma, one of most dangerous types of skin cancer, re-sults in a very high mortality rate. Early detection and resection are two key points for a successful cure. Recent research has used artificial intelligence to classify melanoma and…

This paper explores interpretability techniques for two of the most successful learning algorithms in medical decision-making literature: deep neural networks and random forests. We applied these algorithms in a real-world medical dataset…

Quantification of anatomical shape changes currently relies on scalar global indexes which are largely insensitive to regional or asymmetric modifications. Accurate assessment of pathology-driven anatomical remodeling is a crucial step for…

Melanoma is a type of cancer that begins in the cells controlling the pigment of the skin, and it is often referred to as the most dangerous skin cancer. Diagnosing melanoma can be time-consuming, and a recent increase in melanoma incidents…

Technology aided platforms provide reliable tools in almost every field these days. These tools being supported by computational power are significant for applications that need sensitive and precise data analysis. One such important…

Deep learning-based melanoma classification with dermoscopic images has recently shown great potential in automatic early-stage melanoma diagnosis. However, limited by the significant data imbalance and obvious extraneous artifacts, i.e.,…

Digital mammography is essential to breast cancer detection, and deep learning offers promising tools for faster and more accurate mammogram analysis. In radiology and other high-stakes environments, uninterpretable ("black box") deep…

Automatic melanoma segmentation is essential for early skin cancer detection, yet challenges arise from the heterogeneity of melanoma, as well as interfering factors like blurred boundaries, low contrast, and imaging artifacts. While…

We investigate the design of an entire mobile imaging system for early detection of melanoma. Different from previous work, we focus on smartphone-captured visible light images. Our design addresses two major challenges. First, images…

Melanoma is an aggressive neoplasm responsible for the majority of deaths from skin cancer. Specifically, spitzoid melanocytic tumors are one of the most challenging melanocytic lesions due to their ambiguous morphological features. The…

Deep Learning has shown outstanding results in computer vision tasks; healthcare is no exception. However, there is no straightforward way to expose the decision-making process of DL models. Good accuracy is not enough for skin cancer…

The opaque nature of deep learning models remains a significant barrier to their clinical adoption in medical imaging. This paper presents a multimodal explainability framework that bridges the gap between convolutional neural network (CNN)…

This study evaluates the reliability of two deep learning models for skin cancer detection, focusing on their explainability and fairness. Using the HAM10000 dataset of dermatoscopic images, the research assesses two convolutional neural…

Skin lesions known as naevi exhibit diverse characteristics such as size, shape, and colouration. The concept of an "Ugly Duckling Naevus" comes into play when monitoring for melanoma, referring to a lesion with distinctive features that…

Melanoma is a malignant tumor that originates from skin cell lesions. Accurate and efficient segmentation of skin lesions is essential for quantitative analysis but remains a challenge due to blurred lesion boundaries, gradual color…

Automated skin lesion analysis is very crucial in clinical practice, as skin cancer is among the most common human malignancy. Existing approaches with deep learning have achieved remarkable performance on this challenging task, however,…

Fully automatic detection of skin lesions in dermatoscopic images can facilitate early diagnosis and repression of malignant melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer. Although convolutional neural networks are a powerful solution, they are…

Melanoma is the most malignant skin tumor and usually cancerates from normal moles, which is difficult to distinguish benign from malignant in the early stage. Therefore, many machine learning methods are trying to make auxiliary…

Deep learning techniques have proven high accuracy for identifying melanoma in digitised dermoscopic images. A strength is that these methods are not constrained by features that are pre-defined by human semantics. A down-side is that it is…
