Abstract:: Millions of deaths all over the world are caused by breast cancer every year. It has become the most common type of cancer in women. Early detection will help in better prognosis and increases the chance of survival. Automating the classification using Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) systems can make the diagnosis less prone to errors. Multi class classification and Binary classification of breast cancer is a challenging problem. Convolutional neural network architectures extract specific feature descriptors from images, which cannot represent different types of breast cancer. This leads to false positives in classification, which is undesirable in disease diagnosis. The current paper presents an ensemble Convolutional neural network for multi class classification and Binary classification of breast cancer. The feature descriptors from each network are combined to produce the final classification. In this paper, histopathological images are taken from publicly available BreakHis dataset and classified between 8 classes. The proposed ensemble model can perform better when compared to the methods proposed in the literature. The results showed that the proposed model could be a viable approach for breast cancer classification.

Breast cancer is most prevalent among women around the world and Nigeria is no exception in this menace. The increased in survival rate is due to the dramatic advancement in the screening methods, early diagnosis, and discovery in cancer treatments. There is an improvement in different strategies of breast cancer classification. A model for   training   deep   neural networks   for classification   of   breast   cancer in histopathological images was developed in this study. However, this images are affected by data unbalance with the support of active learning. The output of the neural network on unlabeled samples was used to calculate weighted information entropy. It is utilized as uncertainty score for automatic selecting both samples with high and low confidence. A threshold   that   decays over iteration number is used   to   decide which high confidence samples should be concatenated with manually labeled samples and then used infine-tuning of convolutional neural network. The neural network was optionally trained using weighted cross-entropy loss to better cope with bias towards the majority class. The developed model was compared with the existing model. The accuracy level of 98.3% was achieved for the developed model while the existing model 93.97%. The accuracy gain of 4.33%. was achieved as performance in the prediction of breast cancer .

The article proposes the classification of lenses with different symmetrical beam angles and offers a scale as a spot-light’s palette. A collection of spotlight’s images was created and classified according to the proposed scale. The analysis of 788 pcs of existing lenses and reflectors with different LEDs and COBs carried out, and the dependence of the axial light intensity from beam angle was obtained. A transfer training of new deep convolutional neural network (CNN) based on the pre-trained GoogleNet was performed using this collection. GradCAM analysis showed that the trained network correctly identifies the features of objects. This work allows us to classify arbitrary spotlights with an accuracy of about 80 %. Thus, light designer can determine the class of spotlight and corresponding type of lens with its technical parameters using this new model based on CCN.

This article deals with method of binary classification of images with small text on them Classification is based on the fact that the text can have 2 directions – it can be positioned horizontally and read from left to right or it can be turned 180 degrees so the image must be rotated to read the sign. This type of text can be found on the covers of a variety of books, so in case of recognizing the covers, it is necessary first to determine the direction of the text before we will directly recognize it. The article suggests the development of a deep neural network for determination of the text position in the context of book covers recognizing. The results of training and testing of a convolutional neural network on synthetic data as well as the examples of the network functioning on the real data are presented.
