Breast cancer segmentation using a hybrid AttendSeg architecture combined with a gravitational clustering optimization algorithm using mathematical modelling

Abstract

Breast cancer diagnosis relies on breast ultrasound (BUS) and the early breast cancer screening saves lives. Computer-aided design (CAD) tools diagnose tumours via BUS tumour segmentation. Thus, breast cancer analysis automation may aid radiologists. Early detection of breast cancer might help the patients to survive and in context with this many approaches have been demonstrated by different researches, however, some of the works are weak in the segmentation of breast cancer images. to tackle these issues, this study propose a novel Hybrid Attendseg based gravitational clustering optimization (HA-GC) method which is utilized to segment breast cancer as normal malignant, and benign. For this we have taken the dataset known as breast ultrasound (BUS) images. This method constructively segments the breast cancer images. Prior to the segmentation, pre-processing is carried out which can be used to normalize the images incorporated with the removal of unwanted noises and format the images Optimization selects the best qualities. An experiment is conducted and compared the results with the parameters such as Dice coefficient, Jacquard, Precision, and Recall and attained over 90% and ensures the usage of present work in the segmentation of breast cancer images.
