Deep learning applications, especially CNNs, has revolutionized the domain of disease classification, significantly increasing the accuracy of diagnoses for such common conditions and facilitating early interventions. The huge success behind the ongoing project motivated advancements of the developing in CNN techniques towards detection of skin disease by using the concept of Transfer Learning. So, the older models, which had employed it for detecting Eczema and Psoriasis based on the architectures involving deep CNNs. The Inception ResNet v2 architecture improved the accuracy of that model, with some practical implementations via smartphone integration and web server integration. Some of those innovations are as follows in our project. The earlier work used different CNN architectures. Our approach involved Transfer Learning with a pre-trained ResNet50 model to try to improve performance and efficiency using features learned from large-scale datasets. This reduce the complexity and enhance the accuracy. Besides Transfer Learning adaptation, our project encompasses elaborate preprocessing techniques like resizing, normalization, and data augmentation in fine-tuning the dataset for further model fine-tuning. It has 97.6% accuracy, 95% precision, 99.4% recall, and 97.4% F1-score. rad-CAM techniques have been employed to visualize and interpret model predictions. This final model has been a pragmatic and accessible tool for early detection and diagnosis of skin disease. The feature here is an attempt to provide a more accurate, efficient, and user-friendly diagnostic solution through the incorporation of advanced methods of Transfer Learnin3g and visualization.}, type={Article}, title={CNN and Transfer Learning methods for enhanced dermatological disease detection}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/135228/1-5062-Venkataiah-sk.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ijet.2025.153607}, keywords={eczema, psoriasis, dermatology, CNN, transfer learning}, }
