Popis: Early diagnosis of breast lesions and differentiation of malignant lesions from benign lesions are important for the prognosis of breast cancer. In the diagnosis of this disease ultrasound is an extremely important radiological imaging method because it enables biopsy as well as lesion characterization. Since ultrasonographic diagnosis depends on the expert, the knowledge level and experience of the user is very important. In addition, the contribution of computer aided systems is quite high, as these systems can reduce the workload of radiologists and reinforce their knowledge and experience when considered together with a dense patient population in hospital conditions. In this paper, a hybrid based CNN system is developed for diagnosing breast cancer lesions with respect to benign, malignant and normal. Alexnet, MobilenetV2, and Resnet50 models are used as the base for the Hybrid structure. The features of these models used are obtained and concatenated separately. Thus, the number of features used are increased. Later, the most valuable of these features are selected by the mRMR (Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance) feature selection method and classified with machine learning classifiers such as SVM, KNN. The highest rate is obtained in the SVM classifier with 95.6% in accuracy.
