ABSTRACT:

The skin is the main component of a human body and serves to cover all of the body's muscles, bones, and other structures. Many people these days are afflicted with skin cancer. Skin cancer that is most deadly is called malignant melanoma. Melanoma is the most dangerous kind of cancer. It is a massive malignant tumour on the skin, and its spread is growing daily. If melanoma is discovered early on, treatment is straightforward. Melanoma diagnosis involves both automated and clinical procedures. Early detection of malignant melanoma has significant potential with image-based computer aided diagnosis methods. Automatically identifying the type of skin cancer from the pictures can help with a speedier diagnosis and improved accuracy.
