Abstract
Women die of breast cancer most often worldwide. Breast tissue samples can be examined by radiologists, surgeons, and pathologists for evidence of this cancer. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) can be used to detect this cancer through a visual microscopic examination of breast tissue samples. This sample must be examined by a cytopathologist in order to determine the patient's risk of breast cancer. To determine if a tumor is malignant, the nuclei of the cells must be characterized by their chromatin texture patterns. A machine learning method is used in order to categorize FNA images into two classes, respectively ‘Malignant’ and ‘Benign.’ For detecting abnormalities, numerous feature collection methods and machine learning means are applied here. Using features extracted from the FNA image set, UCI machine learning datasets are used to validate the proposed approach. This paper compares three classification methodologies, namely random forests, Naive Bayes, and artificial neural networks, by examining their accuracy, specificity, precision, and sensitivity, respectively. With the ANN and PCA along with the Chi-square selection method, 99.1% of the classifiers are correctly classified.
