Abstract

Lung discomfort emerges as a prevalent early symptom in cancer treatment, posing significant diagnostic challenges due to delays in radiologist assessments. To address this, we propose an advanced computational framework designed to assist radiologists in the precise detection of lung cancer. This study introduces a multi-tiered prognostic model leveraging cutting-edge machine learning (ML) techniques. The segmentation process employs a threshold-based and marker-controlled watershed algorithm, coupled with a dual-classifier system, to enhance data refinement and accuracy. Detecting lung cancer demands exceptional sensitivity, achieved through training on a curated dataset using sophisticated algorithms including Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Decision Tree (DT), Logistic Regression (LR), Naive Bayes (NB), and Random Forest (RF). Notably, the Random Forest algorithm delivers a superior performance metric, achieving an accuracy of 88.5 %. This innovative approach underscores the transformative potential of integrating advanced ML methodologies with radiological expertise to revolutionize early lung cancer diagnosis and improve patient outcomes.
