ABSTRACT

The human body's largest organ is the skin which covers the entire body. The facial skin is one area of the body that needs careful handling. It can cause several facial skin diseases like acne, eczema, moles, melanoma, rosacea, and many other fungal infections. Diagnosing these diseases has been difficult due to challenges like the high cost of medical equipment and the lack of medical competence. However, various existing systems are utilized to detect the type of facial skin disease, but those approaches are time-consuming and inaccurate to detect the disease at early stages. To address various issues, a deep learning-based gate recurrent unit (GRU) has been developed. Non-linear diffusion is used to acquire and pre-process raw pictures, adaptive histogram equalization (AHE) and high boost filtering (HBF). The image noise is removed by using non-linear diffusion. The contrast of the image is maximized using AHE. The image's edges are sharpened by using HBF. After pre-processing, textural and colour features are extracted by applying a grey level run-length matrix (GLRM) and chromatic co-occurrence local binary pattern (CCoLBP). Then, appropriate features are selected using horse herd optimization (HOA). Finally, selected features are classified using GRU to identify the types of facial skin disease. The proposed model is investigated using the Kaggle database that consists of different face skin disease images such as rosacea, eczema, basal cell carcinoma, acnitic keratosis, and acne. Further, the acquired dataset is split into training and testing. Considering the investigation's findings, the proposed method yields 98.2% accuracy, 1.8% error, 97.1% precision, and 95.5% f1-score. In comparison to other current techniques, the proposed technique performs better. The created model is, therefore, the best choice for classifying the various facial skin conditions.

This test seems to have cornered the diagnosis of different skin diseases. Gate Recurrent Unit [GRU] "introduced in 2014 by Kyunghyun Cho et al." Wikipedia

Maybe we will hear more about this in diagnosing rosacea?
