Detection of lung cancer in CT scans using grey wolf optimization algorithm and recurrent neural network

Purpose For radiologists, identifying and assessing thelung nodules of cancerous form from CT scans is a difficult and laborious task. As a result, early lung growing prediction is required for the investigation technique, and hence it increases the chances of a successful treatment. To ease this problem, computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) solutions have been deployed. The main purpose of the work is to detect the nodules are malignant or not and to provide the results with better accuracy. Methods A neural network model that incorporates a feedback loop is the recurrent neural network. Evolutionary algorithms such as the Grey Wolf Optimization Algorithm and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) Techniques are investigated utilising the Matlab Tool in this work. Statistical attributes are also produced and compared with other RNN with Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)combinations for study. Results The proposed method produced very high accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and precision and compared with other state of art methods. Because of its simplicity and possible global search capabilities, evolutionary algorithms have shown tremendous promise in the area of feature selection in the latest years. Conclusion The proposed techniques have demonstrated outstanding outcomes in various disciplines, outperforming classical methods. Early detection of lung nodules will aid in determining whether the nodules will become malignant or not.
