Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer. Cancer can be defined as a disease characterized by the uncontrolled division and spread of cells. As with other types of cancer, early diagnosis and treatment play a crucial role in combating skin cancer. Since diagnosis is made through visual examination, factors such as the level of expertise and image artifacts negatively affect diagnostic accuracy and slow down the process.Computer-aided applications used to analyze such images provide faster and more accurate results. Additionally, these methods eliminate factors that reduce diagnostic accuracy during the classification and segmentation of skin lesions.This study classifies skin cancer to benign or malignant using deep learning and machine learning methods. In particular, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have shown promising results in medical image classification. The study evaluates six pre-trained CNN models - VGG16, EfficientNetB7, EfficientNetV2L, DenseNet, ConvNeXtBase and MobileNet - for binary skin lesion classification using the ISIC 2019 dataset. The study first preprocesses and balances the data to enhance performance. The results indicate that the ConvNeXtBase model achieved the highest success with accuracy rate of 84.63% after balancing the data that we have.

Skin cancer, especially melanoma, continues to cause a disproportionate percentage of cancer-related deaths despite its high curability when detected early. This work presents an efficient deep-learning system aimed at the binary classification of dermoscopic images as malignant or benign using the GhostNet family of convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The publicly available ISIC-2019 dataset was used for training its extreme class imbalance was corrected using a hybrid Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique coupled with Edited Nearest Neighbours (SMOTE-ENN). End-to-end fine-tuning of three variants of GhostNet (V1, V2, V3) was performed with preprocessing, augmentation, and hyper-parameters kept constant to ensure a fair model-to-model comparison. Evaluation metrics used were accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and the area under the receiver-operating-characteristic curve (AUC). GhostNet V2, augmented with depth-wise attention, gave the strongest results: 95% accuracy, 94% malignant class recall, F1-score of 94.3%, and an AUC of 0.99. GhostNetV2 performed better than both the baseline V1 and V3 without having a parameter count that would prevent real-time inference on mobile hardware. These results of Accuracy, sensitivity, F1-score, AUC and recall show that, when combined with targeted imbalance correction, efficient architectures such as GhostNet are capable of dermatologist-level sensitivity without the computational requirements of heavier models, and thus are feasible for point-of-care or resource-constrained settings. It is complementary to our previous work with other CNNs, allowing model-to-model comparison directly.

Cancer is among the common causes of death around the world. Skin cancer is one of the most lethal types of cancer. Early diagnosis and treatment are vital in skin cancer. In addition to traditional methods, method such as deep learning is frequently used to diagnose and classify the disease. Expert experience plays a major role in diagnosing skin cancer. Therefore, for more reliable results in the diagnosis of skin lesions, deep learning algorithms can help in the correct diagnosis. In this study, we propose InSiNet, a deep learning-based convolutional neural network to detect benign and malignant lesions. The performance of the method is tested on International Skin Imaging Collaboration HAM10000 images (ISIC 2018), ISIC 2019, and ISIC 2020, under the same conditions. The computation time and accuracy comparison analysis was performed between the proposed algorithm and other machine learning techniques (GoogleNet, DenseNet-201, ResNet152V2, EfficientNetB0, RBF-support vector machine, logistic regression, and random forest). The results show that the developed InSiNet architecture outperforms the other methods achieving an accuracy of 94.59%, 91.89%, and 90.54% in ISIC 2018, 2019, and 2020 datasets, respectively. Since the deep learning algorithms eliminate the human factor during diagnosis, they can give reliable results in addition to traditional methods.
