Abstract
In this paper we discuss computer-aided diagnosing and classification of melanoid skin lesions. The main goal of our research was to elaborate and to promote via Internet a new skin lesion diagnostic computer system. Its functionality and structure is described briefly in this report. In the current version of the system, five learning models are implemented to simultaneously supply five independent, partial results. Then, a special evaluation and voting algorithm is applied to select the correct class (concept) of the diagnosed skin lesion.
