Effective detection of breast pathology using machine learning methods

Abstrak

This work is devoted to the research and development of methods for effectively identifying breast pathologies using modern machine learning technologies, such as you only look once (YOLOv8) and faster region-based convolutional neural network (R-CNN). The paper presents an analysis of existing approaches to the diagnosis of breast diseases and an assessment of their effectiveness. YOLOv8 and Faster R-CNN architectures are then applied to create pathology detection models in mammography images. The work analyzed and classified identified breast pathologies at six levels, taking into account different degrees of severity and characteristics of the diseases. This approach allows for more accurate determination of disease progression and provides additional data for more individualized treatment planning. Classification results at various levels can improve the quality of medical decisions and provide more accurate information to doctors, which in turn improves the overall efficiency of diagnosis and treatment of breast diseases. Experimental results demonstrate high accuracy and speed of image processing, providing fast and reliable detection of potential breast pathologies. The data obtained confirm the effectiveness of the use of machine learning algorithms in the field of medical diagnostics, providing prospects for the further development of automated systems for detecting breast diseases in order to improve early diagnosis and treatment efficiency.
