Derm-NN

Abstract

Skin is the most powerful protection of important organs in the human body. It acts as a shield to protect our internal body to get damaged. But this important part of the human body can be affected by so serious infections caused by some fungus or viruses or even dust too. Around the world, millions of people suffer from various skin diseases. From acne problems to eczema people suffer a lot. Sometimes a small boil on the skin can turn into a severe issue or even an infection that will cause a major health issue. Some skin issues are so contagious that one can be affected by another just with a handshake or using a handkerchief. A proper diagnosis can result in proper medication that can reduce the miseries of the people suffering create awareness. In this research, we have tried to develop a prototype to detect skin diseases using neural networks. In the choice of neural networks, we have chosen CNN which abbreviates as a convolutional neural network. Earlier detection works have been done using DNN which is a deep neural network. Right now have classes to identify a typical skin malady called dermatitis hand, eczema hand, eczema subcute, lichen simplex, statis dermatitis and ulcers. This paper is a sandwich between picture handling strategies and machine learning. Where picture preparation has produced the picture which is being utilized by CNN to arrange the classes. The preparation information comprises five classes of the skin gives that have been talked about above. We have 73% precision by actualizing our framework on the dermnet dataset of 500 pictures of various diseases. This will end up being an incredible achievement if the further enhancements are finished utilizing a bigger measure of the dataset.
