Classification of Lung Nodules using Improved Residual Convolutional Neural Network
Salah Eldeen Babiker
Abstract
The most common cancer of the lung cannot be ignored and can cause late-health death. Now CT can be used to help clinicians diagnose early-stage lung cancer. In certain cases the diagnosis of lung cancer detection is based on doctors' intuition, which can neglect other patients and cause complications. Deep learning in most other areas of medical diagnosis has proven to be a common and powerful tool. This research is planned for improving the residual evolutionary neural network (IRCNN). These networks apply with some changes to the benign and malignant lung nodule to the CT image classification task. The segmenting of the nodule is performed here by clustering k-means. The LIDC-IDRI database analysed those networks. Experimental findings show that the IRCNN network archived the best performance of lung nodule classification, which findings best among established methods.
