Abstract

Breast cancer (BC) is a type of disease where cells grow uncontrollably and attack on normal cells. Death rate caused by BC can be reduced by early recognition of the disease. In the recent years, convolution neural network and its various architectures that support transfer learning showed significant improvement in the classification of malignant and non-malignant tumors. In this study, we have performed performance analysis on deep CNN and four popular CNN-based architectures: VGG16, VGG19, MobileNet, and ResNet 50 on publically available BreakHis dataset for breast cancer classification on histopathological images. Among classifiers, VGG16 has best performed with highest 94.67% accuracy, 92.60% precision, 85.21% f1-score, and 80.52% recall value.
