Many efforts have been made for early detection of melanoma. The International Skin Imaging Collaboration (ISIC) hosted the 2018 Challenges to improve the diagnosis of melanoma based on dermoscopic images. In this paper, we describe our solution for the task 2 of ISIC 2018 Challenges. We present a multi-task U-Net model to automatically detect lesion attributes of melanoma. Our multi-task U-Net deep learning model achieves a Jaccard index of 0.433 on official test data, which ranks the 5th place on the final leaderboard.
