<![CDATA[High accuracy in breast cancer classification contributes to the effectiveness of early breast cancer detection. This study aimed to improve the multiview convolutional neural network (MVCNN) performance for classifying breast cancer based on the combined mediolateral (MLO) and craniocaudal (CC) views. The main contribution of this study is the development of a system, consisting of an effective image pre-processing method to create datasets using background removal techniques, and image enhancement. Also, a simplicity of preprocessing stage in the classifier machine, which does not require a feature extraction process. Furthermore, the performance of the classifier was improved by combining preprocessing dataset techniques and evaluating the best hyperparameter in MVCNN architecture. The digital dataset for screening mammography (DDSM) dataset was used for evaluation in this study. The best result from this proposed method achieved accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and specificity of 98.63%, 97.29%, 100%, and 97.29%. The evaluation results demonstrated the capability to improve classification performance. The method proposed in this work can be applied to the detection of breast cancer.]]>
