“…SELF ❼ The researchers have adopted machine learning [1,6,10,24,29] or deep learning [2,4,12,14,18,28,31,40,47,48] or ensemble learning [3, 5, 17, 20, 21, 23, 27, 30, 32-34, 36, 41, 42] techniques to address the breast cancer classification problem, and put their best efforts to improve the performance of their proposed approach(s). From Table 1, we observe that most of the existing works have mainly borrowed the deep learning techniques to address the breast cancer classification problem because of image datasets [2,4,9,12,14,18,20,23,28,31,32,40,47,47,48]. The Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), a deep learning model, performs well on image datasets because it handles the entire feature engineering phase and extracts features from an image in an efficient way.…”
