Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC). The figure displays the ROC curves for the 2 respective image sets. The HPSI test set consisted of dermoscopic images of histopathologically confirmed melanomas that received the HPSI label (n=184, 119 invasive melanomas and 65 melanoma in situ). The All-melanoma test set comprised all dermoscopic images of melanomas with a histopathological verification regardless of the HPSI label (n=476; 169 invasive melanomas and 307 MIS). HPSIM: lesions with a high preoperative suspicion of being invasive melanomas.

Violin plots. The violin plots demonstrate the distinct difference of the sigmoid output between the HPSI melanoma in situ and all melanoma in situ (MIS) lesions. This illustrates that the HPSI melanoma in situ lesions were generally more challenging to diagnose and classify by both the dermatologists and the CNN. CNN: convolutional neural network; HPSIM: lesions with a high preoperative suspicion of being invasive melanomas.
