Abstract

Cervical cancer remains a significant global health concern, emphasizing the urgent need for improved detection methods to ensure timely treatment. This research introduces a sophisticated methodology leveraging recent advances in medical imaging and deep learning algorithms to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of cervical cancer detection. The proposed approach comprises meticulous data preprocessing to ensure the integrity of input images, followed by the training of deep learning models including ResNet-50, AlexNet, and VGG-16, renowned for their performance in computer vision tasks. Evaluation metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score demonstrate the efficacy of the methodology, with an outstanding accuracy rate of 98% achieved. The model’s proficiency in accurately distinguishing healthy cervical tissue from cancerous tissue is underscored by precision, recall, and F1-score values. The primary strength of this deep learning-based approach lies in its potential for early detection, promising significant impact on cervical cancer diagnosis and treatment outcomes. This methodology contributes to advancements in medical imaging techniques, facilitating improved outcomes in cervical cancer detection and treatment.

Abstract

This study addresses the critical issue of cervical cancer, which stands as the fourth most prevalent cancer among women. With early detection being pivotal for successful treatment, the research focuses on evaluating the effectiveness of deep learning-based models in cervical cancer detection. Leveraging the widely employed Papanicolaou (Pap) smear test, the study proposes a transfer learning approach, incorporating contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization for image enhancement. Convolutional neural network models, including AlexNet, visual geometry group (VGGNet)-16, and VGGNet-19, are employed to accurately distinguish between cancerous and non-cancerous cervical cell images. The evaluation metrics encompass accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, F1-score, and the matthew correlation coefficient (MCC). Notably, the findings reveal the exceptional performance of the VGGNet-19 model, achieving an accuracy of 98.71%, sensitivity of 98.33%, and specificity of 99% for a single smear cell. This research marks a significant advancement in the application of deep learning for precise cervical cancer detection. The promising results underscore the potential of these models to enhance early diagnosis and contribute to improved treatment outcomes, thereby addressing a crucial aspect of women's health.
