Breast cancer is a major public health concern, and early detection and classification are essential for improving patient outcomes. However, breast tumors can be difficult to distinguish from benign tumors, leading to high false positive rates in screening. The reason is that both benign and malignant tumors have no consistent shape, are found at the same position, have variable sizes, and have high correlations. The ambiguity of the correlation challenges the computer-aided system, and the inconsistency of morphology challenges an expert in identifying and classifying what is positive and what is negative. Due to this, most of the time, breast cancer screen is prone to false positive rates. This research paper presents the introduction of a feature enhancement method into the Google inception network for breast cancer detection and classification. The proposed model preserves both local and global information, which is important for addressing the variability of breast tumor morphology and their complex correlations. A locally preserving projection transformation function is introduced to retain local information that might be lost in the intermediate output of the inception model. Additionally, transfer learning is used to improve the performance of the proposed model on limited datasets. The proposed model is evaluated on a dataset of ultrasound images and achieves an accuracy of 99.81%, recall of 96.48%, and sensitivity of 93.0%. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method for breast cancer detection and classification. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
