The most efficient and ordinarily used early detection method of breast cancer is screening mammography and deep learning is widely employed in the medical imaging domain. But In the medical circumstances, large data size for training is a significant difficulty and the second thing is very less work on six levels of breast cancer BI-RADS classification. In this research, for the purpose of six levels of BI-RADS classification, we proposed the methodology with a ResNet-based customized neural network (RN-BCNN) as compared to the traditional ConvNet model, using the data augmentation and pyramid of scales techniques on an imbalanced dataset. We obtained the outcomes from the INbreast dataset of mammograms. Therefore, we used the elastic deformation technique for increasing the training dataset size which aid in the improvement of outcomes. Moreover, the proposed methodology improves the accuracy of up to 85.9% because the customized model and elastic deformation took important roles in the efficiency of the proposed strategy.
