- Abstract
- Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, which is considered one of the most common human malignancies in the world. Early detection of this disease can affect the result of the illness and improve the chance of surviving. The tremendous improvement of deep learning algorithms in image recognition tasks promises a great success for medical image analysis, in particular, melanoma classification for skin cancer diagnosis. Activation functions play an important role in the performance of deep neural networks for image recognition problems as well as medical image classification. In this paper, we show that a deep neural network model with adaptive piecewise linear units can achieve excellent results in melanoma recognition. Experimental results show that a convolutional neural network model with parameterized adaptive piecewise linear units outperforms the same network with different activation functions in the melanoma classification task. All experiments are performed using the data provided in International Skin Imaging Collaboration (ISIC) 2018 Skin Lesion Analysis towards Melanoma Detection. © 2018 IEEE.
