RESUMO
Skin melanoma is a lethal cancer. The incidence of melanoma is increasing rapidly in all regions of the world. Despite significant breakthroughs in melanoma treatment in recent years, precise diagnosis of melanoma is still a challenge in some cases. Even specialized physicians may need time and effort to make accurate judgments. As artificial intelligence (AI) technology advances into medical practice, it may bring new solutions to this problem based on its efficiency, accuracy, and speed. This paper summarizes the recent progress of AI in melanoma-related applications, including melanoma diagnosis and classification, the discovery of new medication, guiding treatment, and prognostic assessment. The paper also compares the effectiveness of various algorithms in melanoma application and suggests future research directions for AI in melanoma clinical practice.
