Skin Lesion Segmentation using SegNet with Binary Cross-Entropy

In this paper a simple and computationally efficient approach as per the complexity has been presented for Automatic Skin Lesion Segmentation using a Deep Learning architecture called SegNet including some additional specifications for the improvisation of the results. The secondary objective is to keep the pre/post -processing of the images minimal. The presented model is trained on limited images from the PH2 dataset which includes dermoscopic images, manually segmented. It also contains their masks, the clinical diagnosis and the identification of several dermoscopic structures, performed by professional dermatologists. The aim is to achieve a performance threshold Jaccard Index (IOU) 92% after evaluation.
