Daily Tech News: 6,100-Qubit Quantum Leap, AI's 99% Melanoma Detection, and Driverless Border Crossing
AI Framework ‘SegFusion’ Achieves 99% Melanoma Detection Accuracy Researchers at Northeastern University have developed a groundbreaking AI-powered framework, SegFusion, capable of detecting melanoma with 99.01% accuracy. This hybrid system enhances skin cancer diagnosis by combining two deep learning models. The first model identifies suspicious spots on skin images, and the second analyzes these areas to determine if they are cancerous. The high accuracy of SegFusion is a significant advancement in medical imaging AI and is expected to aid medical practitioners in the early diagnosis of this serious form of skin cancer. Early cancer detection is crucial, as melanoma can become life-threatening if it metastasizes. The United States is projected to have about 212,000 new cases of melanoma diagnosed in 2025. ...
