An Improved Approach on Breast Cancer Detection Using Machine Learning

Abstract

Cancer begins when changes called mutations take place in genes that regulate cell growth. The cells can expand and divide uncontrollably thanks to the mutations. The type of cancer that arises in breast cells is called breast cancer. Generally, breast ducts or lobules are where breast cancer first appears. The ducts that convey the milk from the glands to the nipple are where the milk is created by lobules. Moreover, cancer can develop in the breast's fatty tissue or fibrous connective tissue. Unchecked cancer cells can travel to the lymph nodes under the arms and frequently invade nearby healthy breast tissue. After the cancer has reached the lymph nodes, it has a pathway to spread to other organs, parts of the body. As per a 2013 WHO study, "i t is projected that more than 508,000 ladies passed away all around the world in 2011 because of bosom disease". Early breast cancer development may be treated and prevented. Nonetheless, a lot of women receive a malignant tumor diagnosis after it has advanced past the point of no return. The objective of this paper is to present several approaches to investigate the application of multiple algorithms based on Machine Learning for early breast cancer detection.
