Discriminant Analysis and Neural Network Based Breast Cancer Classifier Using Electrical Impedance
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2016, Vol 18, Issue 5
Abstract
Abstract: Breast cancer presents a serious medical and social problem worldwide. Early detection is key to effective breast cancer treatment. Therefore, scientists are consistently looking for new diagnostic techniques that would be more efficient, easy to use and safe for the patient. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is anattractive alternative modality for breast imaging. The procedure is comfortable; the clinical system cost is a small fraction of the cost of an X-ray system, making it affordable for widespread screening. Artificial neural networks (ANNs) may be good pattern classifiers for this application. A preliminary study to show the potential of neural networks to distinguish benign from malignant skin lesions using electrical impedance is presented. In this paper Discriminant Analysis and ANN based classifiers are verified for breast cancer detection using electrical impedance imaging in frequency scanning. Neural networks were able to classify measurements in a test set with 99% accuracy and 93.7% accuracy for the Discriminant Analysis. These results indicate electrical impedance may be a promising clinical diagnostic tool for detection of breast cancer.
