Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this paper, a novel technique for detecting female breast anomalous tissues is presented and validated through numerical simulations. The technique, to a high degree, resembles X-ray mammography; however, instead of using X-rays for obtaining images of the breast, low-frequency electromagnetic fields are leveraged. To capture breast impressions, a metasurface, which can be thought of as analogous to X-rays film, has been employed. To achieve deep and sufficient penetration within the breast tissues, the source of excitation is a simple narrow-band dipole antenna operating at 200 MHz. The metasurface is designed to operate at the same frequency. The detection mechanism is based on comparing the impressions obtained from the breast under examination to the reference case (healthy breasts) using machine learning techniques. Using this system, not only would it be possible to detect tumors (benign or malignant), but one can also determine the location and size of the tumors. Remarkably, deep learning models were found to achieve very high classification accuracy.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
