A Review of Machine Learning Techniques for the Classification and Detection of Breast Cancer from Medical Images

Cancer is an incurable disease based on unregulated cell division. Breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer in women worldwide, and early detection can lower death rates. Medical images can be used to find important information for locating and diagnosing breast cancer. The best information for identifying and diagnosing breast cancer comes from medical pictures. This paper reviews the history of the discipline and examines how deep learning and machine learning are applied to detect breast cancer. The classification of breast cancer, using several medical imaging modalities, is covered in this paper. Numerous medical imaging modalities’ classification systems for tumors, non-tumors, and dense masses are thoroughly explained. The differences between various medical image types are initially examined using a variety of study datasets. Following that, numerous machine learning and deep learning methods exist for diagnosing and classifying breast cancer. Finally, this review addressed the challenges of categorization and detection and the best results of different approaches.
