Abstract:This study aims to use some geometrical features to investigate and classify two common skin lesions, nevi and melanomas. Two sets of malignant and benign lesions were investigated; the first set contains 70 images from melanoma-diagnosed patients and the second set contains 100 of regular nevi images. A two-steps processing method is followed. First, segmentation of the skin lesions based on the optimal threshold determined by the histogram is performed, then a clustering operation using the Fuzzy C-Mean algo… Show more
