Abstract Skin cancer is the most prevalent cancer globally, primarily due to extensive exposure to Ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Early identification of skin cancer enhances the likelihood of effective treatment, as delays may lead to severe tumor advancement. This study proposes a novel hybrid deep learning strategy to address the complex issue of skin cancer diagnosis, with an architecture that integrates a Vision Transformer, a bespoke convolutional neural network (CNN), and an Xception module. They were evaluated using two benchmark datasets, HAM10000 and Skin Cancer ISIC. On the HAM10000, the model achieves a precision of 95.46%, an… More >

Abstract Skin cancer has been recognized as one of the most lethal and complex types of cancer for over a decade. The diagnosis of skin cancer is of paramount importance, yet the process is intricate and challenging. The analysis and modeling of human skin pose significant difficulties due to its asymmetrical nature, the visibility of dense hair, and the presence of various substitute characteristics. The texture of the epidermis is notably different from that of normal skin, and these differences are often evident in cases of unhealthy skin. As a consequence, the development of an effective… More >

Abstract The necessity of on-time cancer detection is extremely high in the recent days as it becomes a threat to human life. The skin cancer is considered as one of the dangerous diseases among other types of cancer since it causes severe health impacts on human beings and hence it is highly mandatory to detect the skin cancer in the early stage for providing adequate treatment. Therefore, an effective image processing approach is employed in this present study for the accurate detection of skin cancer. Initially, the dermoscopy images of skin lesions are retrieved and processed… More >

Abstract Mobile clouds are the most common medium for aggregating, storing, and analyzing data from the medical Internet of Things (MIoT). It is employed to monitor a patient’s essential health signs for earlier disease diagnosis and prediction. Among the various disease, skin cancer was the wide variety of cancer, as well as enhances the endurance rate. In recent years, many skin cancer classification systems using machine and deep learning models have been developed for classifying skin tumors, including malignant melanoma (MM) and other skin cancers. However, accurate cancer detection was not performed with minimum time consumption.… More >

Abstract The prevalence of melanoma skin cancer has increased in recent decades. The greatest risk from melanoma is its ability to broadly spread throughout the body by means of lymphatic vessels and veins. Thus, the early diagnosis of melanoma is a key factor in improving the prognosis of the disease. Deep learning makes it possible to design and develop intelligent systems that can be used in detecting and classifying skin lesions from visible-light images. Such systems can provide early and accurate diagnoses of melanoma and other types of skin diseases. This paper proposes a new method… More >

Abstract The worldwide mortality rate due to cancer is second only to cardiovascular diseases. The discovery of image processing, latest artificial intelligence techniques, and upcoming algorithms can be used to effectively diagnose and prognose cancer faster and reduce the mortality rate. Efficiently applying these latest techniques has increased the survival chances during recent years. The research community is making significant continuous progress in developing automated tools to assist dermatologists in decision making. The datasets used for the experimentation and analysis are ISBI 2016, ISBI 2017, and HAM 10000. In this work pertained models are used to… More >
