Breast cancer may be a prevalent explanation for death, and it's the sole sort of cancer that's widespread among women worldwide. The prime objective of this paper creates the model for predicting breast cancer using various machine learning classification algorithms like k Nearest Neighbor (kNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Logistic Regression (LR), and Gaussian Naive Bayes (NB). And furthermore, assess and compare the performance of the varied classifiers as far as accuracy, precision, recall, f1-Score, and Jaccard index. The breast cancer dataset is publicly available on the UCI Machine Learning Repository and therefore the implementation phase dataset is going to be partitioned as 80% for the training phase and 20% for the testing phase then apply the machine learning algorithms. k Nearest Neighbors achieved a significant performance in respect of all parameters.

Breast Cancer (BC) is amongst the most common and leading causes of deaths in women throughout the world. Recently, classification and data analysis tools are being widely used in the medical field for diagnosis, prognosis and decision making to help lower down the risks of people dying or suffering from diseases. Advanced machine learning methods have proven to give hope for patients as this has helped the doctors in early detection of diseases like Breast Cancer that can be fatal, in support with providing accurate outcomes. However, the results highly depend on the techniques used for feature selection and classification which will produce a strong machine learning model. In this paper, a performance comparison is conducted using four classifiers which are Multilayer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Random Forest on the Wisconsin Breast Cancer dataset to spot the most effective predictors. The main goal is to apply best machine learning classification methods to predict the Breast Cancer as benign or malignant using terms such as accuracy, f-measure, precision and recall. Experimental results show that Random forest is proven to achieve the highest accuracy of 99.26% on this dataset and features, while SVM and KNN show 97.78% and 97.04% accuracy respectively. MLP shows the least accuracy of 94.07%. All the experiments are conducted using RStudio as the data mining tool platform.


In machine learning, Classification is one of the most important research area. Classification allocates the given input to a known category. In this paper different machine algorithms like Logistic regression (LR), Decision tree (DT), Support vector machine (SVM), K nearest neighbors (KNN) were implemented on UCI breast cancer dataset with preprocessing. The models were trained and tested with k-fold cross validation data. Accuracy and run time execution of each classifier are implemented in python.

Microcalcifications in breast tissue can be an early sign of breast cancer, and play a crucial role in breast cancer screening. This study proposes a radiomics approach based on advanced machine learning algorithms for diagnosing pathological microcalcifications in mammogram images and provides radiologists with a valuable decision support system (in regard to diagnosing patients). An adaptive enhancement method based on the contourlet transform is proposed to enhance microcalcifications and effectively suppress background and noise. Textural and statistical features are extracted from each wavelet layer’s high-frequency coefficients to detect microcalcification regions. The top-hat morphological operator and wavelet transform segment microcalcifications, implying their exact locations. Finally, the proposed radiomic fusion algorithm is employed to classify the selected features into benign and malignant. The proposed model’s diagnostic performance was evaluated on the MIAS dataset and compared with traditional machine learning models, such as the support vector machine, K-nearest neighbor, and random forest, using different evaluation parameters. Our proposed approach outperformed existing models in diagnosing microcalcification by achieving an 0.90 area under the curve, 0.98 sensitivity, and 0.98 accuracy. The experimental findings concur with expert observations, indicating that the proposed approach is most effective and practical for early diagnosing breast microcalcifications, substantially improving the work efficiency of physicians.

Twitter is one of the most popular platforms used to share and post ideas. Hackers and anonymous attackers use these platforms maliciously, and their behavior can be used to predict the risk of future attacks, by gathering and classifying hackers’ tweets using machine-learning techniques. Previous approaches for detecting infected tweets are based on human efforts or text analysis, thus they are limited to capturing the hidden text between tweet lines. The main aim of this research paper is to enhance the efficiency of hacker detection for the Twitter platform using the complex networks technique with adapted machine learning algorithms. This work presents a methodology that collects a list of users with their followers who are sharing their posts that have similar interests from a hackers’ community on Twitter. The list is built based on a set of suggested keywords that are the commonly used terms by hackers in their tweets. After that, a complex network is generated for all users to find relations among them in terms of network centrality, closeness, and betweenness. After extracting these values, a dataset of the most influential users in the hacker community is assembled. Subsequently, tweets belonging to users in the extracted dataset are gathered and classified into positive and negative classes. The output of this process is utilized with a machine learning process by applying different algorithms. This research build and investigate an accurate dataset containing real users who belong to a hackers’ community. Correctly, classified instances were measured for accuracy using the average values of K-nearest neighbor, Naive Bayes, Random Tree, and the support vector machine techniques, demonstrating about 90% and 88% accuracy for cross-validation and percentage split respectively. Consequently, the proposed network cyber Twitter model is able to detect hackers, and determine if tweets pose a risk to future institutions and individuals to provide early warning of possible attacks.

The arising problem on food scarcity drives the innovation of urban farming. One of the methods in urban farming is the smart aquaponics. However, for a smart aquaponics to yield crops successfully, it needs intensive monitoring, control, and automation. An efficient way of implementing this is the utilization of vision systems and machine learning algorithms to optimize the capabilities of the farming technique. To realize this, a comparative analysis of three machine learning estimators: Logistic Regression (LR), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Linear Support Vector Machine (L-SVM) was conducted. This was done by modeling each algorithm from the machine vision-feature extracted images of lettuce which were raised in a smart aquaponics setup. Each of the model was optimized to increase cross and hold-out validations. The results showed that KNN having the tuned hyperparameters of n_neighbors=24, weights='distance', algorithm='auto', leaf_size = 10 was the most effective model for the given dataset, yielding a cross-validation mean accuracy of 87.06% and a classification accuracy of 91.67%.

Leukemia is a fatal cancer and has two main types: Acute and chronic. Each type has two more subtypes: Lymphoid and myeloid. Hence, in total, there are four subtypes of leukemia. This study proposes a new approach for diagnosis of all subtypes of leukemia from microscopic blood cell images using convolutional neural networks (CNN), which requires a large training data set. Therefore, we also investigated the effects of data augmentation for an increasing number of training samples synthetically. We used two publicly available leukemia data sources: ALL-IDB and ASH Image Bank. Next, we applied seven different image transformation techniques as data augmentation. We designed a CNN architecture capable of recognizing all subtypes of leukemia. Besides, we also explored other well-known machine learning algorithms such as naive Bayes, support vector machine, k-nearest neighbor, and decision tree. To evaluate our approach, we set up a set of experiments and used 5-fold cross-validation. The results we obtained from experiments showed that our CNN model performance has 88.25% and 81.74% accuracy, in leukemia versus healthy and multiclass classification of all subtypes, respectively. Finally, we also showed that the CNN model has a better performance than other wellknown machine learning algorithms.

Approximately 2.1 million women every year are affected due to breast cancer which has become one of the major causes for cancer related deaths among women. World Health Organization’s (WHO) report 2018, reveals that around 15% of deaths among women are due to breast cancer. Lack of awareness is one of the major reason which has led to the detection of breast cancer at the later stage. Another major reason is access to limited health resources which make the problem worse. Early or timely detection of breast cancer is utmost important to increase the survival rate of the patients. World Health Organization’s (WHO) cancer awareness guidelines recommend that women aged between 40–49 years of age or 70–75 years of age must be subjected to mammographic screening which will provide the timely detection of the problem, if it persist. This article uses Breast Cancer dataset from UCI machine learning repository to predict and diagnose the class of breast cancer: benign or malignant by using supervised learning. Supervised machine learning algorithms: KNearest Neighbor (K-NN), Naive Bayes, logistic regression and decision tree have been utilized for breast cancer prediction. The performance evaluation of these classification algorithms is done based on various performance measures: accuracy, sensitivity, specificity and F -measure.
