Abstract
Most women generally have an ovarian cyst, causing the disorder. Pregnant cysts occur when many water-packed tumors appear in the womb. This is especially true for women who have a worthy cause for childbearing. Women are related to menstrual problems and cyst problems during pregnancy. Recently, ultrasound imaging and machine learning techniques have been used to detect ovarian cysts. Different domain experts provide their own decisions on finding out what kind of ovarian cyst it is from ultrasound images. However, a most accurate and uniform decision-making system is necessary for the early detection of cysts. To aid physicians, an automated detection system has been proposed in this paper to make it more effective for physicians to eliminate these problems. This system uses the extracted features from the image for cysts detection and classification. Automatic ovary cyst detection (OCD) and classification are implemented in this work using a fuzzy rule-based Convolutional Neural Network (FCNN). The proposed system (OCD-FCNN) has yielded 98.37% accurate results when tested with benchmark datasets.
