Applying Deep Learning Models to Breast Ultrasound Images for Automating Breast Cancer Diagnosis
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Breast cancer is a result of uncontrolled human cell division. The vast growth of breast cancer patients has been an issue worldwide. Most of the patients are women, but breast cancer also affects men with a much lesser percentage. Breast cancer might lead to death for those who are suffering from it. Numerous types of research have been done to make an early diagnosis of breast cancer. It has been proven that the tumor can be detected by using an ultrasound image. Artificial Intelligence techniques have been used to detect breast cancer fundamentally. This paper studies the effectiveness of deep learning (DL) techniques in automating breast cancer diagnosis. Subsequently, the paper evaluates the diagnosis performance of three DL models utilizing the criteria of accuracy, recall, precision, and f1-score. The Densenet-169, U-Net, and ConvNet DL models are selected based on the examination of the related work. The DL diagnosis process involves identifying two types of breast cancer tumors: benign and malignant. The evaluation outcomes of the DL models show that the most effective model for diagnosing breast cancer among the three is the ConvNet, which achieves an accuracy of 91%, a recall of 83%, a precision of 85%, and an F1-score of 83%.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
