Cancer Diagnosis With the Aid of Artificial Intelligence Modeling Tools

Abstract

Cancer is one of the deadliest diseases in the present days. Its survivability is mostly corelated to early detection and treatment, which means that it is of utmost importance to successfully diagnose the patients. Unfortunately, even with years of experience human errors can happen which leads to the death of many individuals being misdiagnosed. Throughout the years there have been several applications created which could possibly aid doctors in the diagnosis. Neural Networks have always been a powerful tool which can be used in different applications that require an accurate model and the complexity of these models exceeds a human's computational capabilities. In image processing for example, a convolutional neural network can analyze each particular pixel and determine through the convolution function the common properties of different pictures. The objective of this study is to analyze different types of cancer diagnosing methods that have been developed and tested using image processing methods. The analyzed factors are training parameters, image processing technique and the obtained performances. This survey/review can be of significant value to researchers and professionals in medicine and computer science, highlighting areas where there are opportunities to make significant new contributions.

Interdisciplinary Dynamics in COVID-19 Research: Examining the Role of Computer Science and Collaboration Patterns

“…Nevertheless, it is imperative to recognize that the process of interdisciplinary integration was not always smooth. Notably, the anticipated effects of computer science and engineering in their integrations and applications have not fully met expectations in the fields [1,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42]. This situation necessitates us to consider the following essential questions: This situation necessitates us to consider the following essential questions.…”

“…Medenica et al discussed the applications of various advanced techniques such as deep learning models, machine learning methods, multivariate analysis, and artificial neural networks across diverse fields. These applications included embryo selection, predicting implantation potential, analyzing semen, and forecasting male infertility [42]. Cai and their team (2021) identified the promise of machine learning in constructing disease models for conditions like hypertension and heart failure [25].…”

“…Interdisciplinary research entails not only acquiring a diverse range of data processing and analysis skills but also ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the data itself. Moreover, it is crucial to establish an efficient data management system that facilitates data storage, retrieval, and sharing while addressing concerns related to data security and privacy protection [23,42,[50][51][52]. Additionally, the standardization of data and processing protocol is essential to prevent compatibility issues arising from diverse theoretical frameworks across disciplines.…”

Analyzing Histological Images Using Hybrid Techniques for Early Detection of Multi-Class Breast Cancer Based on Fusion Features of CNN and Handcrafted

“…There is also an acute shortage of experts of anatomical pathology, which leads to a delay in the sample analysis results for more than a month [6]. Thus, there is an urgent need for the development of automated techniques with the help of computers to overcome the limitations of manual diagnosis [7]. Artificial intelligence techniques, particularly in the field of machine learning, are being increasingly utilized to revolutionize the process of disease detection and diagnosis [8].…”

Machine Learning Approaches for Skin Cancer Classification from Dermoscopic Images: A Systematic Review

“…Even for the final classification phase, different approaches are possible, from the classical ones, to the cutting-edge methodologies based on deep convolutional neural networks. The techniques used to classify skin lesions are similar to those used for other types of cancer, such as breast, thyroid, colorectal, lung, pancreatic, and cervical cancers [40][41][42][43][44]. In this review article, various approaches are examined to then determine which show the best performance in the tasks of skin lesion classification and skin cancer detection.…”
