Skin Cancer

In this project, we’ll develop a model to classify the images of skin cancer and predict whether the given image belongs to class malignant or class benign. We’ll develop a base model and then learn how we can improve the accuracy or reduce the underfitting/overfitting of the model using different techniques such as data augmentation and transfer learning. We’ll start with the vanilla model and then move to the ResNet50 model, and at the end, we’ll learn how to make inferences on a single image. 
Course
Curriculum

In this project, we’ll learn to build an Image classification project for detecting skin cancer in the image using deep learning methods. Will learn to build CNN models and then improve the performance using Transfer learning approaches with the pre-trained models. machine learning technique that can be used to automatically detect cancerous lesions in images. This technique can be use to improve the accuracy of a skin cancer diagnosis.

a machine learning algorithm on a dataset of images, it can learn to distinguish between cancerous and non-cancerous skin lesions. There are many different image classification algorithms, but one of the most promising is convolutional neural networks (CNNs). CNN’s have been used to achieve state-of-the-art results in a variety of image classification tasks, including object detection and recognition.
