摘要
Skin cancer is a prevalent and perilous form of cancer and presents significant diagnostic challenges due to its high costs, dependence on medical experts, and time-consuming procedures. The existing diagnostic process is inefficient and expensive, requiring extensive medical expertise and time. To tackle these issues, researchers have explored the application of artificial intelligence (AI) tools, particularly machine learning techniques such as shallow and deep learning, to enhance the diagnostic process for skin cancer. These tools employ computer algorithms and deep neural networks to identify and categorize skin cancer. However, accurately distinguishing between skin cancer and benign tumors remains challenging, necessitating the extraction of pertinent features from image data for classification. This study addresses these challenges by employing Principal Component Analysis (PCA), a dimensionality-reduction approach, to extract relevant features from skin images. Additionally, accurately classifying skin images into malignant and benign categories presents another obstacle. To improve accuracy, the AdaBoost algorithm is utilized, which amalgamates weak classification models into a robust classifier with high accuracy. This research introduces a novel approach to skin cancer diagnosis by integrating Principal Component Analysis (PCA), AdaBoost, and EfficientNet B0, leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) tools. The novelty lies in the combination of these techniques to develop a robust and accurate system for skin cancer classification. The advantage of this approach is its ability to significantly reduce costs, minimize reliance on medical experts, and expedite the diagnostic process. The developed model achieved an accuracy of 93.00% using the DermIS dataset and demonstrated excellent precision, recall, and F1-score values, confirming its ability to correctly classify skin lesions as malignant or benign. Additionally, the model achieved an accuracy of 91.00% using the ISIC dataset, which is widely recognized for its comprehensive collection of annotated dermoscopic images, providing a robust foundation for training and validation. These advancements have the potential to significantly enhance the efficiency and accuracy of skin cancer diagnosis and classification. Ultimately, the integration of AI tools and techniques in skin cancer diagnosis can lead to cost reduction and improved patient outcomes, benefiting both patients and healthcare providers.
