An deep learning artificial intelligence system has demonstrated its ability to outperform over 50 human dermatologists in the detection of melanoma, a skin cancer which kills around 55,000 worldwide each year.
A team of researchers across France, Germany and the US trained Google’s Inception v4 convolutional neural network (CNN) to identify skin cancers by exposing it to 100,000 images of moles in order to distinguish between benign and malignant ones.
