Abstract
The main goal of our research was to elaborate and to present new approach to classification of melanocytic skin lesions based on medical images recognition. Here, functionality, structure and operation of this approach is presented. The main idea is based on well known ABCD formula, a very popular medical method to prepare non-invasive diagnosis. In this paper we present progress in development of our system and also explanation of applied approach.
