Abstract
The paper presents the results of research on the use of Deep Neural Networks (DNN) for automatic classification of the skin lesions. The authors have focused on the most effective kind of DNNs for image processing, namely Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN). In particular, three kinds of CNN were analyzed: VGG19, Residual Networks (ResNet) and the hybrid of VGG19 CNN with the Support Vector Machine (SVM). The research was carried out with the use of database of over 10 000 images representing skin lesions: benign and malignant. Because of an uneven number of images representing different classes of lesions, the up-sampling of underrepresented class was applied. The comparison of the CNN structures with respect to the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity was performed using k-fold validation method.
