This chapter presents a summary of the issues discussed during the one day workshop on “Support Vector Machines (SVM) Theory and Applications” organized as part of the Advanced Course on Artificial Intelligence (ACAI ’99) in Chania, Greece [19]. The goal of the chapter is twofold: to present an overview of the background theory and current understanding of SVM, and to discuss the papers presented as well as the issues that arose during the workshop.

Support vector machines: Theory and applications

Breast cancer detection using artificial intelligence techniques: A systematic literature review

At the moment, the most prevalent form of cancer diagnosed in women across the globe is breast cancer. It develops in the breast tissue and is one of the most frequent causes of women’s death. This cancer can be cured if it is diagnosed at preliminary stage. Malignant and benign are two types of tumor found in case of breast cancer. Malignant tumors are deadly as their rate of growth is much higher than benign tumors. So, early identification of tumor type is pivotal for the appropriate treatment of a patient having breast cancer. In this work, Wisconsin Breast Cancer Dataset has been used which was collected from UCI repository. Our goal is to analyze the dataset and evaluate the performance of various machine learning algorithms for predicting breast cancer. Here, Support Vector Machine, Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbors, Decision Tree, Naive Bayes and Random Forest classifiers have been implemented for classifying tumors into benign and malignant. The accuracy of each algorithm is calculated and compared to find the most suitable one. Based on the analysis, Random Forest and Support Vector Machine outperform other classifiers with accuracy of 96.5%. These classifiers can be used to build an automatic diagnostic system for preliminary diagnosis of breast cancer.

Malignant and Benign Breast Cancer Classification using Machine Learning Algorithms

Machine Learning Classifiers on Breast Cancer Recurrences

Heart Disease is the leading causes of death and hospitalization in the world. With advancement of technology and the contribution of computer engineering, it is easy to detect heart disease and thus treatment is fast and effectively done. Machine learning nowadays is very popular in predicting disease in the medical field. In this paper, authors have tried to predict heart disease using seven machine learning algorithms and attempted to improve the accuracy of weak performing algorithms using ensemble methods like AdaBoost and voting ensemble method. The performance of Linear Discriminate Analysis is good among other algorithms, it's mean value is approximately 0.847 and mean absolute error is 0.185, the false acceptance rate is lowest among all i.e.; 0.33 and the false recognition rate is 0.076, accuracy is somehow coming 80% which is less if compared with Logistic Regression.

A Novel Approach for Prediction of Heart Disease using Machine Learning Algorithms

Breast cancer is type of tumor that occurs in the tissues of the breast. It is most common type of cancer found in women around the world and it is among the leading causes of deaths in women. This article presents the comparative analysis of machine learning, deep learning and data mining techniques being used for the prediction of breast cancer. Many researchers have put their efforts on breast cancer diagnoses and prognoses, every technique has different accuracy rate and it varies for different situations, tools and datasets being used. Our main focus is to comparatively analyze different existing Machine Learning and Data Mining techniques in order to find out the most appropriate method that will support the large dataset with good accuracy of prediction. The main purpose of this review is to highlight all the previous studies of machine learning algorithms that are being used for breast cancer prediction and this article provides the all necessary information to the beginners who want to analyze the machine learning algorithms to gain the base of deep learning.
