Abstract Advancements in radiation-based imaging and computational intelligence have significantly improved medical diagnostics, particularly in dermatology. This study presents an ensemble-based skin lesion classification framework that integrates deep neural networks (DNNs) with transfer learning, a customized DNN, and an optimized self-learning binary differential evolution (SLBDE) algorithm for feature selection and fusion. Leveraging computational techniques alongside medical imaging modalities, the proposed framework extracts and fuses discriminative features from multiple pre-trained models to improve classification robustness. The methodology is evaluated on benchmark datasets, including ISIC 2017 and the Argentina Skin Lesion dataset, demonstrating superior accuracy, precision, and F1-score… More >
