Predicting Invasive Ductal Carcinoma Tissues in Whole Slide Images of Breast Cancer by Using Convolutional Neural Network Model and Multiple Classifiers in Google Colab

Abstract Breast Cancer (BC) is the common type of cancer found in women which is caused due to the abnormal growth of cells in the breast. An early BC detection helps to increase the survival rate of the patient and 80% BC type was Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (IDC) .In this work, a deep learning-based IDC prediction model is proposed with multiple classifiers and CNN (Convolutional Neural Network). The developed deep learning method used a sequential Keras model like conv2D, Maxpooling2D, Dropout, Flatten and Dense. The multiple classifiers are LR (Logistic Regression), RF (Random Forest), K-NN (K-Nearest Neighbors), SVM (Support Vector Machine), Linear SVC, GNB (Gaussian NB) and DT (Decision Tree). The CNN model generated by using SkLearn, Keras and Tensor flow libraries, and results are organized by MatPlot libraries. At the classification stage, a helper function was defined, and Google Colab online browser platform used for developing the proposed model. The performance is analysed in terms of Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1-score and Support.
