Detection of skin cancer 'Melanoma' through computer vision

Abstract:

In the last decades, skin cancer increased its incidence becoming a public health problem. Technological advances have allowed the development of applications that help the early detection of melanoma. In this context, an image processing was developed to obtain Asymmetry, Border, Color, and Diameter (ABCD of melanoma). Using neural networks to perform a classification of the different kinds of moles. As a result, this algorithm developed after an analysis of 200 images was obtained a performance of 97.51%.
