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.

This study presents a clinically relevant framework for evaluating deep neural networks that segment lymphoma lesions in PET/CT images, addressing gaps such as out‑of‑distribution testing and comparison with expert annotators. Using 611 multi‑institutional cases, the authors assess four networks (ResUNet, SegResNet, DynUNet, SwinUNETR) with lesion‑specific metrics, detection criteria, and metabolic‑characteristic‑based thresholds, finding that models perform best on large, intense lesions. The work also demonstrates that network errors mirror those of physicians, highlighting shared challenges with small, faint lesions.
MDSkin-Net is a multi‑task skin lesion analysis framework that integrates Pattern Analysis priors into a hybrid CNN‑Transformer architecture. It introduces a Pattern Analysis‑Guided Attention Module (PAGAM) with improved Efficient Channel Attention, Multi‑Scale Spatial Attention, and Biased Asymmetry Attention, along with a multi‑scale spatial alignment regularization that uses segmentation masks as soft supervision. Trained only on the ISIC 2017 training split, the model achieves high segmentation and classification performance on multiple datasets, demonstrating strong zero‑shot generalization across different cohorts.
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.
