DERMA: A Melanoma Diagnosis Platform Based on Collaborative Multilabel Analog Reasoning

Table 2

Sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy results obtained in multilabel classification using dermoscopy data, confocal data, and both types of data with a collaborative system and using the different DERMA modules. Each result shows the -test comparison between the result obtained on this DERMA configuration in comparison with the previous one using 95% of confidence level. This is presented with an (↑) if it is significantly better and (—) if there is no significant difference.
