Intelligent Data Analytics for Diagnosing Melanoma Skin Lesions via Deep Learning in IoT System

Melanoma is considered to be one of the most dangerous human malignancy, which is diagnosed visually or by dermoscopic analysis and histopathological examination. However, as these traditional methods are based on human experience and implemented manually, there have been great limitations for gener...
