Abstract

In the world, Skin cancer is the predominant cause of mortality from cancer-related conditions. However, the manual diagnosis of skin cancer continues to present challenges, despite the fact that timely detection significantly enhances the likelihood of effective treatment. The objective of this study is to examine the use of deep learning, namely EfficientNetB0, for the objective of identification and categorizing skin cancer through the identification of dermatoscopic images. We make use of a pre-trained EfficientNetB0 model, develop it using a bespoke architecture, and evaluate its effectiveness with the help of the HAM10000 dataset, which contains more than 10,000 dermatoscopic images. The model's performance is evaluated using many measures, including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score, and we describe our findings in comparison to the approaches that are currently in use. The fact that the the model attains an accuracy rate of 64%, as demonstrated by our findings, has the potential to serve as an automated diagnostic instrument for the purpose of diagnosing skin cancer.
