Innovative Method for Detecting Liver Cancer using Auto Encoder and Single Feed Forward Neural Network

Liver cancer ranks sixth among all cancers in frequency of incidence. A CT scan is the gold standard for diagnosis. These days, CT scan images of the liver and its tumor can be segmented using deep learning and Neural Network techniques. In this proposed approach to identifying cancer cells, it's focus on four important areas: To enhance a photo by taking out imperfections and unwanted details. An ostu method is used for this purpose. Specifically, this proposed approach to use the watershed segmentation technique for image segmentation, followed by feature extraction, in an effort to isolate the offending cancer cell. After finishing the model training with AE-ELM. To do this, Extreme Learning Machine incorporates an auto encoder. To achieve effective and supervised recognition, the network's strengths of Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) are thoroughly leveraged, including its few training parameters, quick learning speed, and robust generalization ability. The auto encoder-extreme learning machine (AE-ELM) network has been shown to have a respectable recognition impact when the sigmoid activation function is used and the number of hidden layer neurons is set to 1200. According to the results of this investigation, a method based on AE-ELM can be utilized to detect the liver tumor. As compared to the CNN and ELM models, this technique achieves superior accuracy (around 99.23%).
