The variation in skin textures and injuries, as well as the detection and classification of skin cancer, is a difficult task. Manually detecting skin lesions from dermoscopy images is a difficult and time-consuming process. Recent advancements in the domains of the internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence for medical applications demonstrated improvements in both accuracy and computational time. In this paper, a new method for multiclass skin lesion classification using best deep learning feature fusion and an extreme learning machine is proposed. The proposed method includes five primary steps: image acquisition and contrast enhancement; deep learning feature extraction using transfer learning; best feature selection using hybrid whale optimization and entropy-mutual information (EMI) approach; fusion of selected features using a modified canonical correlation based approach; and, finally, extreme learning machine based classification. The feature selection step improves the system’s computational efficiency and accuracy. The experiment is carried out on two publicly available datasets, HAM10000 and ISIC2018. The achieved accuracy on both datasets is 93.40 and 94.36 percent. When compared to state-of-the-art (SOTA) techniques, the proposed method’s accuracy is improved. Furthermore, the proposed method is computationally efficient.

“…Attention mechanism introduced in whole network has channel spatial and LSTM adaptive attention mechanism. First, skin lesion regions vary in color, size, and shape; some light lesions are highly similar to normal skin, and boundaries of deeper lesion regions are complex, to segment model with sufficiently dense feature resolution, Ren et al [ 83 ] used serial attention network (SANet) to segment skin lesion regions and introduced channel first followed by a spatial attention mechanism to aggregate global, local, and interchannel information using interdependencies between channel mappings to improve representation of semantic features and using spatial attention to select global contextual information and contextual relationships to make semantic features more compact and consistent; SANet captures interpixel and interchannel feature dependencies and achieves 0.7692 average Jaccard index in ISIC2017 dataset. Second, it is difficult for image caption generation tasks to correctly extract image global features and perform image regions for each word without ignoring partial words, Deng et al [ 84 ] used DenseNet to extract features required for LSTM generation of sentences and introduced LSTM adaptive attention mechanism to improve correspondence problem of forced text and image regions, which was demonstrated on Flickr30k and COCO datasets showed that flexibility of caption generation was improved, with significant improvements in the BLEU and METEOR evaluation criteria.…”

“…Moreover, transfer learning is more efficient in classifying between similar lesions, making it a first choice [161]. These papers used transfer learning in the literature we surveyed [25], [26], [28], [30], [33]- [39], [41], [42], [46], [52], [58], [61], [62], [64], [66]- [68], [70]- [73], [75], [76], [76], [77], [85]- [87], [92], [102], [112], [113], [122], [124], [126], [127], [129], [141], [151], [152], [158], [159], [162]- [179]. Transfer learning can transfer the parameters of the trained model (pre-training model) to the new model to help the new model training.…”

Skin cancer is one of the most threatening cancers, which spreads to the other parts of the body if not caught and treated early. During the last few years, the integration of deep learning into skin cancer has been a milestone in health care, and dermoscopic images are right at the center of this revolution. This review study focuses on the state-of-the-art automatic diagnosis of skin cancer from dermoscopic images based on deep learning. This work thoroughly explores the existing deep learning and its application in diagnosing dermoscopic images. This study aims to present and summarize the latest methodology in melanoma classification and the techniques to improve this. We discuss advancements in deep learningbased solutions to diagnose skin cancer, along with some challenges and future opportunities to strengthen these automatic systems to support dermatologists and enhance their ability to diagnose skin cancer.
