SC-DeLeNet: A parameter transfer based segmentation-classification integration for detecting skin cancer lesions from dermoscopic images.

Dermoscopic images ideally depict pigmentation attributes on the skin surface which is highly regarded in the medical community for detection of skin abnormality, disease or even cancer. The identification of such abnormality, however, requires trained eyes and accurate detection necessitates the process being time-intensive. As such, computerized detection schemes have become quite an essential, especially schemes which adopt deep learning tactics.

AutoCovNet: Unsupervised feature learning using autoencoder and feature merging for detection of COVID-19 from chest X-ray images.

With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the automated diagnosis has become one of the most trending topics of research for faster mass screening. Deep learning-based approaches have been established as the most promising methods in this regard. However, the limitation of the labeled data is the main bottleneck of the data-hungry deep learning methods.
