Skin Lesion Detection of Dermoscopy Images Using Estimate Localization Technique

Border detection of dermoscopy image is an important part to help physicians for the purposes of diagnosing dermoscopy images as the skin lesions in malignant melanoma. In this paper, we propose a new technique to locate the skin lesion. The technique comprises of two parts; image preprocessing and image segmentation. Pre-processing method as the first part is used to remove some unwanted as a noise. In the second part, we proffer the estimate localization method as a technique to detect the border of the skin lesions. The border detection results are collated with clinically ground truth, and assessed in terms of the percentage border error.
