According to the recent surveys, breast cancer has become one of the major causes of mortality rate among women. Breast cancer can be defined as a group of rapidly growing cells that lead to the formation of a lump or an extra mass in the breast tissue which consequently leads to the formation of tumor. Tumors can be classified as malignant (cancerous) or benign (non-cancerous). Feature selection is an important parameter in determining the classification systems. Machine learning methods are the most commonly used methods among researchers for breast cancer diagnosis. This paper proposes to investigate the WBCD (Wisconsin Breast Cancer Dataset) which comprises of 683 patients and implements the chosen features to train the back propagation neural network. The performance is then analyzed on the basis of classification accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictor values, receiver operating characteristic curves and confusion matrix. A total of 9 features has been used to classify breast cancer with an accuracy of 99.27%.

Number of hidden neurons is necessary constant for tuning the neural network to achieve superior performance. These parameters are set manually through experimentation. The performance of the network is evaluated repeatedly to choose the best input parameters.Random selection of hidden neurons may cause underfitting or overfitting of the network. We propose a novel fuzzy controller for finding the optimal value of hidden neurons automatically. The hybrid classifier helps to design competent neural network architecture, eliminating manual intervention for setting the input parameters. The effectiveness of tuning the number of hidden neurons automatically on the convergence of a back-propagation neural network, is verified on speech data. The experimental outcomes demonstrate that the proposed Neuro-Fuzzy classifier can be viably utilized for speech recognition with maximum classification accuracy.

Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in women worldwide. Early diagnosis of this illness can increase the chances of long-term survival of cancerous patients. To help in this aid, computerized breast cancer diagnosis systems are being developed. Machine learning algorithms and data mining techniques play a central role in the diagnosis. This paper describes neural network based approaches to breast cancer diagnosis. The aim of this research is to investigate and compare the performance of supervised and unsupervised neural networks in diagnosing breast cancer. A multilayer perceptron has been implemented as a supervised neural network and a self-organizing map as an unsupervised one. Both models were simulated using a variety of parameters and tested using several combinations of those parameters in independent experiments. It was concluded that the multilayer perceptron neural network outperforms Kohonen's self-organizing maps in diagnosing breast cancer even with small data sets.
