Welcome to a step-by-step guide on using the melanoma detection model developed through adversarial training and deep transfer learning. This model is based on the research outlined in the paper titled Melanoma Detection using Adversarial Training and Deep Transfer Learning. Here, we will break down usage instructions, along with troubleshooting advice to help you effectively use this model.
Model Description
The model has been trained on the ISIC 2016 Task 3 dataset. It is specifically designed to detect melanoma from skin lesion images. More information about the architecture and algorithm can be found in the aforementioned paper.
Intended Uses
This model is primarily intended for:
- Detecting melanoma from images of skin lesions.
Limitations
While the model shows promising results, it has its limitations:
- Trained on a limited dataset with just over a thousand samples, its applicability to various other kinds of skin lesions is uncertain.
- It lacks an out-of-distribution detection method, meaning that non-skin lesion images could also be misclassified as benign.
How to Use
To interact with the model, you can:
- Check out the Spaces demo for a hands-on experience.
- Refer to the deploy section on GitHub for additional code examples on implementation.
Troubleshooting
If you run into issues while using the model, consider the following troubleshooting tips:
- Ensure that the images you are using are suitable for the model; images should ideally be skin lesions.
- If you’re getting unexpected classification results, double-check whether your input image is part of the model’s trained dataset.
