In this work, we compare the performance of six state-of-the-art deep neural networks in classification tasks when using only image features, to when these are combined with patient metadata. We utilise transfer learning from networks pretrained on ImageNet to extract image features from the ISIC HAM10000 dataset prior to classification. Using several classification performance metrics, we evaluate the effects of including metadata with the image features. Furthermore, we repeat our experiments with data augmentation. Our results show an overall enhancement in performance of each network as assessed by all metrics, only noting degradation in a vgg16 architecture. Our results indicate that this performance enhancement may be a general property of deep networks and should be explored in other areas. Moreover, these improvements come at a negligible additional cost in computation time, and therefore are a practical method for other applications.
