OBJECTIVE: Melanoma is a dangerous form of the skin cancer responsible for thousands of deaths every year. Early detection of melanoma is possible through visual inspection of pigmented lesions over the skin, treated with simple excision of the cance...
PURPOSE: To evaluate performance and the clinical impact of a novel machine learning based vessel-suppressing computer-aided detection (CAD) software in chest computed tomography (CT) of patients with malignant melanoma.

In this paper, we present a novel framework for dermoscopy image recognition via both a deep learning method and a local descriptor encoding strategy. Specifically, deep representations of a rescaled dermoscopy image are first extracted via a very de...
Skin cancer is a major public health problem with over 123,000 newly diagnosed cases worldwide in every year. Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, responsible for over 9000 deaths in the United States each year. Thus, reliable automatic mel...
The practical increase of interest in intelligent technologies has caused a rapid development of all activities in terms of sensors and automatic mechanisms for smart operations. The implementations concentrate on technologies which avoid unnecessary...
