Black-white and colour skin/lesion images are synthesised with known characteristics such as boundary, skin pattern and colour. The skin and lesion textures are modelled by the auto-regressive (AR) process. Black-white skin lesion images are obtained by combining black-white skin and lesion textures under control of known lesion shape and colour skin lesion images are generated by mixing the co...
