Source abstract
The development of abnormal cell growth is caused by different pathological alterations and some genetic disorders. This alteration in skin cells is very dangerous and life-threatening, and its timely identification is very essential for better treatment and safe cure. Therefore, in the present article, an approach is proposed for skin lesions’ segmentation and classification. So, in the proposed segmentation framework, pre-trained Mobilenetv2 is utilised in the act of the back pillar of the DeepLabv3+ model and trained on the optimum parameters that provide significant improvement for infected skin lesions’ segmentation. The multi-classification of the skin lesions is carried out through feature extraction from pre-trained DesneNet201 with N × 1000 dimension, out of which informative features are picked from the Slim Mould Algorithm (SMA) and input to SVM and KNN classifiers. The proposed method provided a mean ROC of 0.95 ± 0.03 on MED-Node, 0.97 ± 0.04 on PH2, 0.98 ± 0.02 on HAM-10000, and 0.97 ± 0.00 on ISIC-2019 datasets.
