Melanoma diagnosis

• 

  Example of program GUI

Inspiration :

I was inspired by the fact that the leading cause of death when it comes to skin cancer is a layer diagnosis or a misdiagnosis. This program is my first step in trying to resolve that issue.

What it does :

This program uses a simple CNN to build a model capable of determining whether a skin discoloration is a malignant melanoma or a benign skin normality.

How we built it:

I used TensorFlow to build the CNN model and trained this model using open-source labeled images of melanoma found at https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/kmader/skin-cancer-mnist-ham10000.

Challenges we ran into

I am not a very good front-end developer, so excuse the GUI for this program. The goal is perhaps to get this onto an app on a smart device.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I was able to get the model to be just over 98% accurate!

What we learned

I learned a little bit more about front-end development and that I should look into honing my skills in that area more as presentation is essential.
