| TITLE | Melanoma Cancer Detection using Deep Learning |
|---|---|
| ABSTRACT | Early detection of melanoma drastically improves prognosis. This paper presents a compact, deployable deep- learning pipeline for binary melanoma classification (benign vs malignant) that emphasizes explainability and deployability. The approach uses a MobileNetV2 backbone with transfer learning, dataset-specific preprocessing, class-weighting to address imbalance, ROC-based threshold selection (Youden Index), and Grad-CAM visual explanations for clinical interpretability. We condensed a detailed project report into this single-column manuscript and included representative diagrams and results. The images used in this manuscript are the actual project visuals provided by the authors. |
