Lung Cancer Classification Using Squeeze and Excitation Convolutional Neural Networks with Grad Cam++ Class Activation Function

Abstract

The leading cause of cancer-related death globally has been identified as lung cancer. Early lung nodule detection is critical for lung cancer therapy and patient survival. The Gard Cam++ Class Activation Function is used with a squeeze-and-excite network to provide a revolutionary method for differentiating malignant from benign lung nodules on CT scans. The new SENET (Squeeze-and-Excitation Networks) Grad Cam++ module, which combines the features calibration and discrimination benefits of SENET, has been shown to have a substantial potential for improving feature discriminability in lung cancer classification. According to the publicly available LUng Nodule Analysis 2016 (LUNA16) database, when assessed on 1230 nodules, the technique achieved an AUC of 0.9664 and an accuracy of 97.08% (600 malignant and 630 benign). The favorable results demonstrate the robustness of our technique to nodule classification, which we anticipate will be valuable in the future. The technology's objective is to aid radiologists in evaluating diagnostic data and differentiating benign from malignant lung nodules on CT images. To our knowledge, no systematic evaluation of SENET usefulness in classifying lung nodules has been done.

“…The research uses Grad-CAM++ with the Mask Regional Convolution Neural Network, which has shown a powerful real-time ability to detect and classify existing objects and shapes [24]. The research uses Grad-CAM++ enabled with the squeeze-and-excite network on the CT scan dataset of lung cancer [25]. The research improves Grad-CAM++ to activate the 3D CNN layer to classify lung nodules and detect lung cancer early [26].…”

“…SHAP was then used to highlight red areas that minimize the probability of the tumor. maximize the probability of a tumor and green areas that mi Joshua et al 80 presented a paper on lung cancer classification using CT images. The paper proposed using a squeeze‐and‐excite network and GradCAM++ to classify malignant and benign lung nodules on CT scans.…”
