Exploring Data Science for Highlighting Breast Cancer Prediction Using Python

Abstract

This paper summarizes Data science which is an upcoming and advanced field in technology. We know that in today’s world storing large amounts of data is not easy and hence we use data science for it. Data science is a multi- disciplinary field that makes use of algorithms, processes to extract information from structured and unstructured data. Breast cancer is a form of cancer that develops in the breast cells. Breast cancer is the second most common cancer diagnosed in women all over the world, after skin cancer. Breast cancer can strike both men and women, but it affects women much more frequently. Major support for breast cancer awareness and education has assisted in the advancement of breast cancer diagnosis and care. This paper focuses on the use of data science to predict Breast Cancer. Generally, we use two languages for coding in Data Science – Python and R. Authors in this paper have used Python for implementation of the work. The main focus of this paper will revolve around Data Science, Python and Breast Cancer Prediction. Data science has importance in various fields and has shown itself as well be it medical or any other it has been on the list. The main focus of the paper is to lay emphasis on breast cancer prediction and use of python and data science in it.
