Breast cancer is a disease caused by the disordered growth of abnormal breast cells, which multiply and form tumors. It is one of the most common cancers among women, and also has a high mortality rate in advanced disease cases. For the year 2019 alone, according to a Ministry of Health [2], around 59,700 new cases of this type of cancer were expected in Brazil. This paper aims to compare the performance of the techniques of Random Forest and Deep Learning in cancer prediction.
