Abstract

Early diagnosis of breast cancer plays an important role in improving survival rate. Physiological changes of breast tissue can be observed and measured through medical electrical impedance, and the results can be used as a preliminary diagnosis by doctors before treatment. In this paper, quantum genetic algorithm (QGA) and support vector machine (SVM) were combined to classify breast tissues to help clinicians in diagnosis. The algorithm uses QGA to optimize the parameters of SVM and improve the classification performance of SVM. In this experiment, the electrical impedance data measured from breast tissue provided by UCI [58] was used as the data set. Objectively speaking, the data volume of the data set is small and the representativeness is not strong enough. However, the experimental results show that QGA-SVM shows better classification performance, and it is better than SVM.
