Skin cancer is the most common deadly disease caused due to abnormal and uncontrolled growth of cells in the human body. According to a report, annually nearly one million people are affected by skin cancer worldwide. To protect human lives from such life‐threatening diseases, early identification of skin cancer is the only precautionary measure. In recent times, there already exist numerous automated techniques to detect and classify skin lesion malignancies using dermoscopic images. However, analyzing the dermoscopic images becomes an arduous task due to the presence of troublesome features such as light reflections, illumination variations, and uneven shape and dimension. To address the challenges faced during skin cancer recognition process, in this paper, we proposed an efficient intelligent automated system to detect and discriminate the dermoscopic images into malignant or benign. The proposed skin cancer detection model utilizes the HAM10000 dataset for evaluation. The dermoscopic images acquired from the HAM10000 dataset are initially preprocessed to enhance the quality of image and thus making it fit to train the classifier. Afterward, the most significant image patterns are extracted by the AlexNet architecture without any loss of detailed information. Later on, the extracted features are inputted to the proposed Improved Adaboost‐based Aphid–Ant Mutualism (IAB‐AAM) classification model to discriminate the images into malignant and benign categories. The proposed IAB‐AAM approach witnessed extensive enhancement in classification accuracy. The enhanced performance is attributed by integrating the AAM optimization concept with the IAB model. By comparing the performance of the proposed IAB‐AAM with other modern methods in terms of different evaluation indicators namely accuracy, precision, specificity, sensitivity, and f‐measure, the efficiency of the proposed IAB‐AAM technique is analyzed. From the experimental results, it is known that the proposed IAB‐AAM technique attains a greater accuracy rate of 95.7% in detecting skin cancer classes than other compared approaches.
Diabetic Retinopathy is one of the most dangerous disease and should be identified and treated properly at the very early stage. This is usually diagnosed by scanning the interior structure of human eye with modality like optical coherence tomography and color fundus photography. Then the disease is been diagnosed manually by the respective experts which is a time-consuming process. This process should be automated so that the disease can be diagnosed in a faster and efficient way to reduce the human error. More number of researchers have been done based on automating the diagnosing of diabetic retinopathy disease using machine learning and deep learning approach. The most recent and robust techniques are been discussed in this paper.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
