Skin Cancer Detection Based on Extreme Learning Machine and a Developed Version of Thermal Exchange Optimization
Melanoma is defined as a disease that has been incurable in advanced stages, which shows the vital importance of timely diagnosis and treatment. To diagnose this type of cancer early, various methods and equipment have been used, almost all of which required a visit to the doctor and were not availa...
