    Abstract

    Burn is one of the most leading devastating
    injuries affecting people worldwide with high impact rate in
    low-and middle-income countries subjecting hundreds of
    thousands to loss of lives and physical deformities. Both
    affected individuals and health institutions are faced with
    challenges such as inadequate experience/well trained
    workforce and high diagnostics cost. The demand of having
    efficient, cost-effective and user-friendly technique to aid in addressing the problem is on the rise. Deep neural networks have recently attracted the attention of many researchers and achieved impressive results in many applications. Therefore, this paper proposed the use of off-the-shelf Convolutional Neural Network features from two ImageNet pre-trained models (GoogleNet and ResNet152), VGG-Face. The features are used to train Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Decision Tree (DT). 100% identification accuracy was recorded using ImageNet model and SVM.
