Abstract
In this paper, computer-aided automatic system for classification of melanocytic skin lesions is described. The main goal of our research was to elaborate and to present new approach to classification of melanocytic lesions based on medical images recognition. Here, functionality, structure and operation of this approach is presented. Our approach is based on well known ABCD formula, a very popular medical method to prepare non-invasive diagnosis. Now, we present progress in development of our system and also explanation of applied approach.
