Abstract

This study introduces a sophisticated predictive model integrating clinical and lifestyle data addressing the critical public health challenge of cervical cancer, particularly in regions lacking routine screenings. Leveraging data driven analytics, the proposed model undergoes comprehensive preprocessing, including exploratory data analysis, missing value imputation, and feature extraction. Feature selection is carried out using the XGBoost classifier to ensure model efficacy. Data normalization and class balance via oversampling techniques are applied, with model validation conducted through stratified cross-validation. The optimized feature vector is then employed to train a LightGBM model. Utilizing a retrospective dataset of 858 patients from the Hospital Universitario de Caracas, Venezuela, comprising demographic, lifestyle, and medical history data, the LightGBM model achieves an impressive accuracy of 98%, outperforming similar existing approaches. The study outcome demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed data modelling framework and feature selection, along with the choice of LightGBM as a suitable classifier. The proposed predictive framework can efficiently aid healthcare professionals in prioritizing high-risk patients for further evaluation and intervention.

Abstract

This paper proposes a novel deep ensemble learning framework designed for the efficient detection and classification of cervical cancer from Pap smear images. The proposed study implements three advanced learning models namely DenseNet201, Xception, and a classical convolutional neural network (CNN) customized with optimal hyperparameters to automate feature extraction and cervical cancer detection process. The proposed study also introduces a novel ensemble learning to enhance the classification of cervical cancer. The proposed ensemble mechanism is based on the confidence aggregation followed by uncertainty quantification and prediction ranking scheme, thus ensuring that more reliable predictions have a proportionally greater influence on the final outcome. The primary goal is to leverage the collective intelligence of the ensemble in a manner that prioritizes reliability and minimizes the impact of less certain predictions. The experimental analysis is carried out on two dataset one with whole slide images (WSI) and another on cropped images. The proposed ensemble model achieves an accuracy rate 100 and 97% for dataset with WSI and with cropped images respectively.
