Comparative analysis of features and classification techniques in breast cancer detection for Biglycan biomarker images.
Article in Cancer biomarkers : section A of Disease markers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundBreast cancer (BC) is considered the world's most prevalent cancer. Early diagnosis of BC enables patients to receive better care and treatment, hence lowering patient mortality rates. Breast lesion identification and classification are challenging even for experienced radiologists due to the complexity of breast tissue and variations in lesion presentations.
objectiveThis work aims to investigate appropriate features and classification techniques for accurate breast cancer detection in 336 Biglycan biomarker images.
methodsThe Biglycan biomarker images were retrieved from the Mendeley Data website (Repository name: Biglycan breast cancer dataset). Five features were extracted and compared based on shape characteristics (i.e., Harris Points and Minimum Eigenvalue (MinEigen) Points), frequency domain characteristics (i.e., The Two-dimensional Fourier Transform and the Wavelet Transform), and statistical characteristics (i.e., histogram). Six different commonly used classification algorithms were used; i.e., K-nearest neighbours (k-NN), Naïve Bayes (NB), Pseudo-Linear Discriminate Analysis (pl-DA), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Decision Tree (DT), and Random Forest (RF).
resultsThe histogram of greyscale images showed the best performance for the k-NN (97.6%), SVM (95.8%), and RF (95.3%) classifiers. Additionally, among the five features, the greyscale histogram feature achieved the best accuracy in all classifiers with a maximum accuracy of 97.6%, while the wavelet feature provided a promising accuracy in most classifiers (up to 94.6%).
conclusionMachine learning demonstrates high accuracy in estimating cancer and such technology can assist doctors in the analysis of routine medical images and biopsy samples to improve early diagnosis and risk stratification.
