Abstract
Skin diseases are generally normal around the globe, as people get skin diseases because of inheritance and natural elements. Dermatologists rely heavily on visual examinations to diagnose skin diseases. However, this method can be inaccurate and time-consuming. The development of the technique in deep learning (DL) and the availability of GPUs can expand and improve the quality of computer-aided disease diagnostics systems. This paper proposes a DL-based smartphone application to aid a dermatologist in diagnosing skin disease in real-time. In the proposed work, we first used fine-tuned DenseNet201 for feature extraction and SVM to accurately classify normal and abnormal skin. A Deep Ensemble CNN (DECNN) framework with DenseNet-201, Resnet50, and MobileNet is further used for skin disease categorization if abnormal skin is detected. The experimental outcome of this study demonstrates that the framework can achieve an 84% accuracy in skin disease classification and outperform existing state-of-the-art works. The simple implementation and acceptable accuracy of the proposed method can be helpful for dermatologists in the diagnosis of skin disease.
