An Integrated Approach to Stage 1 Breast Cancer Detection

Abstract: We present an automated, end-to-end approach for Stage 1 breast cancer detection. The first phase of our proposed work-flow takes individual digital mammograms as input and outputs several smaller sub-images from which the background has been removed. Next, we extract a set of features which capture textural information from the segmented images.In the final phase, the most salient of these features are fed into a Multi-Objective Genetic Programming system which then evolves classifiers capable of identifying … Show more

“…We list a few applications. For example, in climatology for modeling global temperature changes [10], for creating a monitoring network to measure the state of groundwater [11], in healthcare for early detection of breast cancer [12], in genetics for operon prediction [13], and in bioinformatics [14]. Among industrial applications belong a management and reservation system for airlines [15], finding the optimal robot path for revising complex structures [16], solving vehicle route planning problems [17], or optimizing and simplifying design in CAD systems [18].…”

“…Genetic algorithms are mathematical optimization algorithms that solve engineering and other problems by representing the unknown variables as strings of digits that mimic DNA. This biomimetic approach has been hugely successful producing innovations in a range of fields (e.g., ophthalmology [ 31 ], oncology [ 32 ], engineering [ 33 ], and economics [ 34 ]); however, such work is rarely framed with any reference to the natural world or sustainability. Since 2010, there have been over 338,000 articles and books mentioning the approach, yet only 6700 (1.9%) mentioning sustainability and even fewer (0.8%) mentioning the word nature (results from Google Scholar, ) ignoring citations and patents.…”

“…The gene in GA takes on a value from an alphabet of sizeB ∈ C ) from each string or chromosome then consists of a series of n genes resulting in a solution space of size B ( . The binary alphabet {0, 1} is the most common and generally most effective string which means each gene takes on a possible value of 0 or 1: GA has established itself to be extremely effective in problems such as software testing [167], [170], medical diagnosis [68], [121], airline booking [13], seismic vibration [161], mechatronics and robot [76] and load-balancing [238], networks [110]. The simple algorithm of GA and flow chart for chromosome population are shown in algorithm 2 and figure 11 respectively.…”
