Multi-Class Neural Networks to Predict Lung Cancer

摘要

Lung Cancer is the leading cause of death among all the cancers' in today's world. The survival rate of the patients is 85% if the cancer can be diagnosed during Stage 1. Mining of the patient records can help in diagnosing cancer during Stage 1. Using a multi-class neural networks helps to identify the disease during its stage 1 itself. The implementation of multi-class neural networks has yielded an accuracy of 100%. The model created using the neural networks approach helps to identify lung cancer during Stage 1 itself, thus the survival rate of the patients can be increased. This model can serve as pre-diagnosis tool for the practitioners.
