| Abstract |
Melanoma is a type of cancer that occurs on the skin. Only in the US, 50,000-100,000 patients are yearly diagnosed with melanoma. Five year survival rate highly depends on early detection, varying between 99% and 15% depending on the melanoma stage. Melanoma is typically identified with a visual inspection and lately confirmed and classified by a biopsy. In this work, we propose a hybrid system combining features which describe melanoma images together with machine learning models that learn to distinguish melanoma lesions. Although previous works distinguish melanoma and non-melanoma images, those works focus only in the binary case. Opposed to this, we propose to consider finer classification levels within a five class learning problem. We evaluate the performance of several nominal and ordinal classifiers using four performance metrics to provide highlights of several aspects of classification performance, achieving promising results. |
