The study compares five pre‑trained convolutional neural networks—ResNet50, VGG16, VGG19, MobileNet, and InceptionV3—for melanoma detection using dermatoscopic and histopathological image datasets. Accuracy varied across models and modalities, with ResNet50 achieving the highest scores (84% on HAM10000 and 83% on CR‑AI4SkIN) and InceptionV3 the lowest (71% on ISIC 2018). The results show that a model’s performance on dermatoscopic images does not necessarily predict its performance on histopathological images.

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 uncertainty-aware and explainable deep learning framework for multi-class skin lesion classification.

BruNet is a new cross‑domain transfer framework for automatic bruise segmentation that combines a ViT‑based visual encoder (either self‑supervised DINOv3 or pretrained LingBot‑Vision) with a SAM‑based mask decoder. The model is trained on the HAM10000 skin lesion dataset and evaluated on a separate bruise dataset without any fine‑tuning, achieving superior performance over CNN‑based models, state‑of‑the‑art segmentation models, ChatGPT‑4o/5‑assisted SAM2 zero‑shot baselines, and the medical‑oriented MedSAM. This work represents the first study to address pixel‑level localisation of bruises, demonstrating strong cross‑domain generalisation.
CG-HAF is a global‑local fusion framework for ordinal acne severity grading that explicitly combines holistic facial severity probabilities with structured lesion‑burden descriptors such as lesion count, detection confidence, and lesion area. The model uses a lightweight, interpretable classifier to produce the final grade, achieving statistically significant improvements over global‑evidence‑only baselines, especially for severe cases. Cross‑dataset testing reveals that strong performance within a dataset does not automatically transfer, largely due to mismatched grading criteria rather than detection failures.
Accurate dermatological diagnosis naturally necessitates equitable performance across diverse populations, yet a systematic lack of expertly annotated images, especially for underrepresented skin tones and rare diseases, impedes progress toward measurably fair methods. We introduce cgDDI (Controllable Generation of Diverse Dermatological Imagery), a hybrid framework that (1) synthesizes realistic healthy skin samples without disturbing other input properties, (2) maps single-sample rare lesions onto novel skin-tones and locations non-parametrically, and (3) allows for efficient parametric generation with as few as 10 training samples.

The paper introduces the Semantic Tri-view Pipeline, an interpretable system that automatically screens teledermatology photographs for gradability by analyzing epidermal micro-relief across up to three smartphone views. It uses a lightweight DeepLabV3+ model to segment micro-relief fidelity and aggregates the resulting spatial masks with logistic regression, leveraging viewpoint redundancy to improve robustness. Evaluated on the SCIN dataset, the approach raises the AUC from 0.81 to 0.96 on optically clear cases, offering real‑time, privacy‑by‑design feedback to filter ungradable photo sets before clinician review.
