    Skin cancer is the most frequently occurring kind of cancer, accounting for about one-third of all cases. Automatic early detection without expert intervention for a visual inspection would be of great help for society. The image processing and machine learning methods have significantly contributed to medical and biomedical research, resulting in fast and exact inspection in different problems. One of such problems is accurate cancer detection and classification. In this study, we introduce an expert system based on image processing and machine learning for skin cancer detection and classification. The proposed approach consists of three significant steps: pre-processing, feature extraction, and classification. The pre-processing step uses the grayscale conversion, Gaussian filter, segmentation, and morphological operation to represent skin lesion images better. We employ two feature extractors, i.e., the ABCD scoring method (asymmetry, border, color, diameter) and gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), to extract cancer-affected areas. Finally, five different machine learning classifiers such as logistic regression (LR), decision tree (DT), k-nearest neighbors (KNN), support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF) used to detect and classify skin cancer. Experimental results show that random forest exceeds all other classifiers achieving an accuracy of 97.62% and 0.97 Area Under Curve (AUC), which is state-of-the-art on the experimented open-source dataset PH2.

    Toward Automatic Water Pollution Analysis: A Machine Learning Approach for Water-Quality Monitoring Through Pattern Classification of Water Crystallization
    (SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2022) Rada, Lavdie; Tanriverdi, Yusuf Baran; Kara, Omer Ekmel; Hemond, Elizabeth M.; Tezel, Ulas; BritoLoeza, C; MartinGonzalez, A; CastanedaZeman, V; Safi, A; Bahcesehir University; Bogazici University
    Heavy metal contamination in drinking water and water resources is one of the problems generated by increasing water demand and growing industrialization. Heavy metals can be toxic to humans and other living beings when their intake surpasses a certain threshold. Generally, heavy metal contamination analysis of water resources requires qualified experts with specialized equipment. In this paper, we introduce a method for citizen-based water-quality monitoring through simple pattern classification of water crystallization using a smartphone and portable microscope. This work is a first step toward the development of a Water Expert System smartphone application that will provide the ability to analyze water resource contamination remotely by sending images to the database and receiving an automatic analysis of the sample via machine learning software. In this study, we show the ability of the method to detect Fe 2 mg/1 L, 5 mg/L,10 mg/L polluted distilled water compared with other heavy metals (Al, Pb) pollution. The experimental results show that the classification used method has an accuracy greater than 90%.
