New ensemble deep learning framework enhances skin lesion classification accuracy

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a new deep learning framework for classifying skin lesions from medical images. This framework combines a vision transformer model, MaxViT-Tiny, with two convolutional neural network models, ConvNeXt-Tiny and EfficientNetV2-B0, using deep ensemble learning. The system incorporates Monte Carlo Dropout to estimate prediction uncertainty and Grad-CAM++ for visual explanations, highlighting the regions of the image that contribute to the classification decision. When tested on the HAM10000 dataset, the framework achieved 96% accuracy and 99% ROC-AUC, demonstrating its potential for trustworthy computer-aided diagnosis. AI

IMPACT This framework offers improved accuracy and interpretability for medical image analysis, potentially aiding in earlier and more reliable diagnoses.

    Uncertainty-Aware and Explainable Ensemble Deep Learning Framework for Multi-Class Skin Lesion Classification

    arXiv:2608.11280v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Skin cancer diagnosis from dermoscopic images remains challenging due to high intra-class variability, inter-class similarity, class imbalance, and the limited interpretability of deep learning models. This paper proposes an uncer…
