Skin Cancer Detection Using Deep Learning—A Review

Skin cancer is one the most dangerous types of cancer and is one of the primary causes of death worldwide. The number of deaths can be reduced if skin cancer is diagnosed early. Skin cancer is mostly diagnosed using visual inspection, which is less accurate. Deep-learning-based methods have been proposed to assist dermatologists in the early and accurate diagnosis of skin cancers. This survey reviewed the most recent research articles on skin cancer classification using deep learning methods. We also provided an overview of the most common deep-learning models and datasets used for skin cancer classification.
