description Skin cancer has become a serious disease which has the potential to scale up if it is not identified earlier. It is imperative to detect and give treatment to skin cancer promptly. Diagnosing skin cancer manually takes a lot of time and it is costly, and the probability of false diagnosis has increased due to the outstanding resemblances among various skin lesions. Enhancing the classification of multi-class lesions of skin needs the development of investigative systems which should be automated. Data augmentation with GANs and Adaptive Conditional Generative Adversarial Network strategies improves performance. The performance is tested using balanced and unbalanced datasets. Using a proper process of augmentation of data, the suggested system attains a 94% accuracy for the VGG16, 93% for the ResNet50 and 94.25% for ResNet101. The process of collaboration of all such methods improves accuracy further to 95%. In summary, the novelty of the work lies in its holistic approach to automated skin lesion classification, incorporating advanced deep learning models, novel data augmentation techniques and comprehensive performance evaluation on real-world datasets. These contributions collectively advance the field of computer-aided diagnosis for the detection of skin cancer and treatment.
