Classification of breast cancer mammogram images using convolution neural network

Abstract

Summary Medical imaging systems have broadly used in the diagnosis and identification of breast cancer. It is essential to recognize breast tumor as soon as possible. Mammography is a widely utilized method for the identification of breast cancer. The identification of cancer is trailed by the segmentation of the cancer area in an image of the mammogram. Numerous researches have been made on the diagnosing and identification of breast cancer utilizing different classification and image processing methods. In this work, we proposed the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) classifier for diagnosing breast cancer utilizing MIAS (Mammographic Image Analysis Society)‐dataset. CNN established as an efficient class of methods for image recognition problems. CNN is a deep learning system that extricates the feature of an image and utilizes those features for classification of the image. Because deep learning methods are utilized for high task objective Computer Vision, Medical Diagnosis, Image processing, and so on. Wiener filter is utilized to expel the noise and background of the image and the K‐means clustering technique was utilized for the segmentation. After segmentation, the features are extracted and classified utilizing CNN classifier. The performance of this proposed method was analyzed and compared with the conventional techniques based on accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity result parameters. From the comparison result, it is seen that the CNN classifier performed better compared with different techniques with 0.5‐4% additional accuracy and 3‐13% specificity.
