Abstract

Deep Learning has been used in many challenges in the current Big Data era, with great improvements, especially in image classification tasks, helping to boost the potential efficacy in computer vision and signal processing applications. As deep learning techniques develop more and more, automated classification tasks based on convolutional neural networks have integrated many fields and have become indispensable nowadays. Over the past decade, these architectures have become very sophisticated. Although several strategies for deep structures have been used, the frequency domain has not been widely investigated in this field. This research suggests using Fast Fourier convolution layers to perform image classification for skin disorders with a denoising block. The obtained results show that the CNN approach with the FFT considerably decreases the training time compared to a naïve CNN model with convolution. The suggested method was tested using the publicly accessible HAM10000 dataset and achieved an accuracy rate of 88%.
