Abstract

There is a critical need to develop a system to detect melanoma cancer early. Melanoma cancer cells have uneven border shapes, angular edges and also colour variations are found in these type of cells. To detect melanoma in its early stage, cell colour, its shape and texture on the surface of the skin need to be studied extensively. There are two Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) techniques which are used for early skin cancer detection include colour constancy approach and skin lesion analysis. In this paper the authors perform a comparative study between colour constancy and skin lesion analysis for early skin cancer detection on EDRA database.
