Skin Cancer, a health issue which might cause severe consequences if not detected and controlled properly. Since there is a huge evolution in the health sector because of development in computer technologies, it is possible to analyze images efficiently and make correct decisions. Deep learning algorithms can be used for analyzing dermoscopic images by learning features of images in an incremental manner. Aim of our proposed method is to categorize skin lesion image as Benign or Melanoma and also to study the performance of Convolutional Neural Network algorithm using data augmentation technique and without data augmentation technique. The proposed method uses dataset from ISIC archive 2019. Steps involved in the proposed method are Image Pre-Processing, Image Segmentation and Image Classification. Initially, Image Pre-Processing algorithm is performed on skin lesion image. Image Segmentation algorithm is used to obtain Region of Interest (ROI) from pre-processed image. Then, Convolutional Neural Network algorithm classifies image as melanoma or benign. The Proposed method can rapidly detect melanoma skin cancer which aids in starting the treatment process without delay.
