Resumen

The incidence of melanoma cases continues to rise, underscoring the critical need for early detection and treatment. Recent studies highlight the significance of deep learning in melanoma detection, leading to improved accuracy. The field of computer-assisted detection is extensively explored along all lines, especially in the medical industry, as the benefit in this field is to save hu-man lives. In this domain, this direction must be maximally exploited and introduced into routine controls to improve patient prognosis, disease prevention, reduce treatment costs, improve population management, and improve patient empowerment. All these new aspects were taken into consideration to implement an EHR system with an automated melanoma detection system. The first step, as presented in this paper, is to build a system based on the fusion of decisions from multiple neural networks, such as DarkNet-53, DenseNet-201, GoogLeNet, Inception-V3, InceptionResNet-V2, ResNet-50, ResNet-101, and compare this classifier with four other applications: Google Teachable Machine, Microsoft Azure Machine Learning, Google Vertex AI, and SalesForce Einstein Vision based on the F1 score for further integration into an EHR platform. We trained all models on two databases, ISIC 2020 and DermIS, to also test their adaptability to a wide range of images. Comparisons with state-of-the-art research and existing applications confirm the promising performance of the proposed system.
