Researchers in South Korea develop new Artificial Intelligence algorithm for diagnosing skin conditions

Firstpost  

Artificial Intelligence has made lives easier. Now, a new learning-based AI algorithm for diagnosing skin conditions is creating a buzz in the medical field. The algorithm, developed by researchers in South Korea, has the ability to accurately classify cutaneous skin disorders, suggest primary treatment options and predict malignancy, reported Health Europa. The new system is required to classify malignant against benign lesions and distinguish skin cancer from numerous other skin disorders to show that it can live up to expectations. The researchers deployed a convolutional neural network, a specialised AI algorithm, to develop the system capable of diagnosing skin disorders effectively.
