The proposed prototypical-part model for melanoma diagnosis in dermoscopy images is designed to be both interpretable and reliable. The model relies on two information pathways: binary masks generated by a segmentation network and user-refined prototypes. This approach aims to ensure that the learned prototypes correspond to relevant skin lesion areas, excluding confounding factors. Experimental results show superior performance and generalization compared to non-interpretable models.

A team of researchers has developed a new way to detect melanoma using images taken with dermoscopy. They created a special kind of model that can explain its thinking, making it more trustworthy for doctors. To do this, they used two different types of information: one from a computer program and the other from people who looked at the images. This helps make sure the model is focusing on the right parts of the skin lesion. The results show that this new approach works better than previous methods.
