Abstract: The diagnosis and categorization of skin cancer, as well as the difference in skin textures and injuries, is a tough undertaking. Manually detecting skin lesions from dermoscopy images seems to be a difficult and cumbersome challenge. Recent advancements in the internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence for clinical applications have shown significant increase in precision and processing time. A lot of attention is given to deep learning models because they are effective at identifying cancer cells. The diagnosis and accuracy levels can be greatly increased by categorizing benign and malignant dermoscopy images. This work suggests an automated classification system based on a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) in order to precisely perform multi-classification. The DCNN's structure was thoughtfully created by arranging a number of layers that are in charge of uniquely extracting different features from skin lesions. In this paper, we proposed a deep learning approach to tackle the three main tasks-deep extraction of features (task1) using transfer learning, selection of features (task2)-using metaheuristic algorithms such as Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), and Gorilla Troop Optimization (GTO) as a feature selector, the extensive feature set is optimized, and the amount of features is reduced to within the range, and a two-level classification (task3) was proposed that are emerging in the field of skin lesion image processing. On the HAM10000 dataset, the proposed deep learning frameworks were assessed. The accuracy achieved on the dataset is 93.58 percent. The proposed method outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) techniques in terms of accuracy. The suggested technique is however highly scalable.
