Multimodal skin lesion classification for early cancer diagnosis using deep learning

Combining DenseNet-201, InceptionV3, and VGG16, the proposed ensemble model outperforms the individual models with a testing accuracy of 97.9%. Additionally, it exhibits a better F1-score, recall, and precision of 99.2%, demonstrating its efficacy in automated skin lesion detection.

Abstract

Combining DenseNet-201, InceptionV3, and VGG16, the proposed ensemble model outperforms the individual models with a testing accuracy of 97.9%. Additionally, it exhibits a better F1-score, recall, and precision of 99.2%, demonstrating its efficacy in automated skin lesion detection.
