Abstract
Recently, computer vision (CV) based disease diagnosis models have been utilized in various areas of healthcare. At the same time, deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) models play a vital role in the healthcare sector for the effectual recognition of diseases using medical imaging tools. This study develops a novel computer vision with optimal machine learning enabled skin lesion detection and classification (CVOML-SLDC) model. The goal of the CVOML-SLDC model is to determine the appropriate class labels for the test dermoscopic images. Primarily, the CVOML-SLDC model derives a gaussian filtering (GF) approach to pre-process the input images and graph cut segmentation is applied. Besides, firefly algorithm (FFA) with EfficientNet based feature extraction module is applied for effectual derivation of feature vectors. Moreover, na??ve bayes (NB) classifier is utilized for the skin lesion detection and classification model. The application of FFA helps to effectually adjust the hyperparameter values of the EfficientNet model. The experimental analysis of the CVOML-SLDC model is performed using benchmark skin lesion dataset. The detailed comparative study of the CVOML-SLDC model reported the improved outcomes over the recent approaches with maximum accuracy of 94.83%.
