OBJECTIVE: Computerized analysis of pigmented skin lesions (PSLs) is an active area of
research that dates back over 25years. One of its main goals is to develop reliable automatic …

This paper presents a novel computer-aided diagnosis system for melanoma. The novelty
lies in the optimized selection and integration of features derived from textural, border …

A set of high-level intuitive features (HLIFs) is proposed to quantitatively describe melanoma
in standard camera images. Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer. With rising …

Background: Automated intelligent systems for unbiased diagnosis are primary requirement
for the pigment lesion analysis. It has gained the attention of researchers in the last few …

Skin cancer has become a public health problem due to its increasing incidence. However,
the malignancy risk of the lesions can be reduced if diagnosed at an early stage. To do so, it …

The ABCD rule is a simple framework that physicians, novice dermatologists and non-
physicians can use to learn about the features of melanoma in its early curable stage …

Asymmetry, color variegation and diameter are considered strong indicators of malignant
melanoma. The subjectivity inherent in the first two features and the fact that 10% of …

In recent years, the incidence of skin cancer cases has risen, worldwide, mainly due to the
prolonged exposure to harmful ultraviolet radiation. Concurrently, the computer-assisted …
