Pink Guardian: A Gateway to Early Breast Cancer Detection
Kanchan Subhashchandra Maurya, Youshan Zhang · 2024
Breast cancer (BC) remains a pivotal concern in global health, and existing methods for early detection are often limited by accessibility and diagnostic accuracy. We present “Pink Guardian,” a mobile application that offers a significant advancement in the early detection of breast cancer, leveraging a proposed BC-Inception V3 architecture within TensorFlow Lite for real-time, precise classification of mammogram images. This sophisticated model has been integrated into a user-friendly interface, enabling users to easily obtain diagnostic predictions and corresponding confidence scores. Through rigorous experiments, BC-Inception-V3 emerged as the best model, showcasing superior training and test accuracies, thus signifying a break-through in clinical breast cancer screening that could be readily available on users' smartphones.
