Proposed Healthcare System for Skin Disease Detection using Convolutional Neural Network

Abstract

In global terms health issues are considered a 2 nd priority compared to a lot of other issues in day-to-day life. As health issues are playing second fiddle, Skin diseases are regarded as not too important compared to other major league diseases such as Cancer, HIV, Stroke etc. As skin diseases are becoming more and more common in day-to-day life because of numerous reasons such as Poor Diet, Oily Fast Food, Pollution in the surrounding, Stressful working environment, etc. as it can also be genetic condition (hereditary) in one’s nature. The aim is to understand the research that has goneinto the detection of skin diseases using modern technologies and methods to speed up the process and to achieve better accuracy of the detection and classification of various skin diseases.
