Many algorithms were developed for the efficient skin lesion segmentation. Most of them fails to realize a perfect segmentation. This paper proposes a novel, fully automatic system, for the lesion segmentation in dermatograms. The proposed approach executes in two steps. Selection of root seed is the first step. All the lesion pixels in the dermatogram are identified during the second step. Traversal through a predefined lesion pixel path ensures the reachability of all lesion pixels irrespective of the possible lesion discontinuity. The proposed algorithm is tested with two publically available dataset, PH2 and images of ISBI2016 challenge. Out of the six evaluation parameters, the proposed method shows the best values for specificity, accuracy, Hammuode distance and XOR. This confirms the merit of the proposal with respect to existing popular methods. 2020, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd. Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Nikesh P.; Raju G.
