Abstract

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women worldwide and early detection is critical to improving survival rates. In this study, we present a modified deep learning method for automatic feature detection for breast mass classification on mammograms. We propose to use EfficientNet, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture that requires minimal parameters. The main advantage of EfficientNet is the small number of parameters, which allows efficient and accurate classification of mammogram images. Our experiments show that EfficientNet, with an overall accuracy of 86.5 percent, has the potential to be the basis for a fully automated and effective breast cancer detection system in the future. Our results demonstrate the potential of EfficientNet to improve the accuracy and efficiency of breast cancer detection compared to other approaches.
