Automatic skin lesion subtyping is a crucial step for diagnosing and treating skin cancer and acts as a first level diagnostic aid for medical experts. Although, in general, deep learning is very effective in image processing tasks, there are notable areas of the processing pipeline in the dermoscopic image regime that can benefit from refinement. Our work identifies two such areas for improvement. First, most benchmark dermoscopic datasets for skin cancers and lesions are highly imbalanced due to the relative rarity and commonality in the occurrence of specific lesion types. Deep learning methods tend to exhibit biased performance in favor of the majority classes with such datasets, leading to poor generalization. Second, dermoscopic images can be associated with irrelevant information in the form of skin color, hair, veins, etc.;hence, limiting the information available to a neural network by retaining only relevant portions of an input image has been successful in prompting the network towards learning task-relevant features and thereby improving its performance. Hence, this research work augments the skin lesion characterization pipeline in the following ways. First, it balances the dataset to overcome sample size biases. Two balancing methods, synthetic minority oversampling TEchnique (SMOTE) and Reweighting, are applied, compared, and analyzed. Second, a lesion segmentation stage is introduced before classification, in addition to a preprocessing stage, to retain only the region of interest. A baseline segmentation approach based on Bi-Directional ConvLSTM U-Net is improved using conditional adversarial training for enhanced segmentation performance. Finally, the classification stage is implemented using EfficientNets, where the B2 variant is used to benchmark and choose between the balancing and segmentation techniques, and the architecture is then scaled through to B7 to analyze the performance boost in lesion classification. From these experiments, we find

The efficiency of multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) in tackling issues with multiple objectives is examined. However, it is noted that current MOEA-based feature selection techniques often converge towards the center of the Pareto front due to inadequate selection forces. The study proposes the utilization of a novel approach known as MOEA/D, which partitions complex multi-objective problems into smaller, more feasible single-objective sub-problems. Each sub-problem may then be addressed using an equal amount of computational resources. The predetermined size of the neighborhood used by MOEA/D may lead to a delay in the algorithm's merging and reduce the effectiveness of the failure. The paper proposes the Adaptive Neighbourhood Adjustment Strategy (ANAS) as a novel approach to improve the efficiency of multi-objective optimisation algorithms in order to tackle this issue. The ANAS algorithm allows for adaptive adjustment of the subproblem neighborhood size, hence enhancing the trade-off between merging and variety. In the following section of the study, a novel feature selection technique called MOGHHNS3/D-ANA is introduced. This technique utilizes ANAS to expand the potential solutions for a particular subproblem. The approach evaluates the chosen features using the Regulated Extreme Learning Machine (RELM) classifier on sixteen benchmark datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that MOGHHNS3/D-ANA outperforms four commonly employed multi-objective techniques in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, F1 score, coverage, hamming loss, ranking loss, and training time, error. The APBI approach in decomposition-based multi-objective optimization focuses on handling constraints by adjusting penalty parameters to guide the search towards feasible solutions. On the other hand, the ANA approach focuses on dynamically adjusting the neighborhood size or search direction based on the proximity of solutions in the detached space to adapt the search process.
