Popis: Cancer of the breast is a deadly disease that can take a person’s life in many different ways. Predicting breast cancer at an early stage is crucial in the fight to end the disease. The usage of deep learning and blockchain technology has been implemented with the intention of integrating optimal prediction with clinical diagnostics and protecting private health information. Patients’ medical records are encrypted and stored in the blockchain for maximum safety. As a result, a large portion of time and energy is spent on feature engineering, a tedious process that requires prior expert domain knowledge of the data to develop effective features, and is crucial to the success of most conventional classification systems. Deep learning, on the other hand, can arrange the discriminative information in the data without the need for a domain expert to develop feature extractors. The research community and industry have paid attention to deep, feedforward networks like convolutional neural networks (CNNs) because of their empirical results in areas including speech recognition, signal processing, object recognition, natural language processing, and transfer learning. For the best breast cancer prediction, a new method called a “Hybrid CNN” combining the Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA) with a transfer learning algorithm has been presented. Mini-batch size and drop-out rate are just two of the factors that the SCA algorithm may fine-tune. To stop the model from overfitting, we employ a transfer learning strategy. The hyperparameters found using sine cosine algorithm is used in Visual geometry Group (VGG 16) architecture. ImageNet is used to pretrain the network and last three convolutional layers are trained using transfer learning. The integration of sine cosine algorithm and transfer learning together increases the accuracy thereby preventing the model from overfitting. The experimentation is performed in Google Colab and the proposed Hybrid CNN is compared with existing methodologies such as K-NN, SVM. Also, the proposed Hybrid CNN is compared with CNN without transfer learning and CNN without SCA. The metrics taken into account for comparison are accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F-score. The proposed Hybrid CNN achieves 96.9% accuracy that shows the effectiveness of the integration of SCA and transfer learning.
