Abstract
In this paper, we concentrate on the identification of skin cancer. The skin images are taken from a medical database which is a pre-processed image, which is given as input for different machine learning algorithm. The algorithm used is KNN classifier, SVM classifier, and CNN model. where these classifiers will classify whether a given image is cancerous or non-cancerous image. In case of the KNN and SVM the output is 80%, hence in CNN model substantial improvement in accuracy of cancer detection is obtained & it can classify the cancerous & Non-cancerous images efficiently. The process was conducted for test data, training data and validation data using different-images. The training dataset was trained with 100 epochs. The process obtained the accuracy of 97% in training result. in testing result obtained is 95% of accuracy and 96% for val-idation testing.
