This project utilizes a neural network built with TensorFlow/Keras and is fully implemented within a Google Colab notebook for ease of experimentation and access. -🎯 Project Goals +## 🎯 Project Goals The primary goal of this project is to develop a model that can accurately classify breast cancer cases based on numerical data features, aiding in early diagnosis and treatment decisions. -πŸ“Š Dataset Overview +## πŸ“Š Dataset Overview Source: The dataset is the Breast Cancer dataset available in sklearn, containing key characteristics of tumors. Data Features: Includes numerical attributes related to tumor measurements and properties. Classes: Two target classesβ€”benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous). Dataset Split: The dataset is divided into an 80-20 split for training and testing. -πŸš€ Features +## πŸš€ Features Neural Network Model: Built with TensorFlow and Keras, featuring input, hidden, and output layers. Performance Visualization: Training and validation accuracy and loss are tracked and visualized to assess model performance. Predictive System: A simple function is included to classify new data inputs, predicting whether a tumor is benign or malignant. -πŸ” Project Workflow +## πŸ” Project Workflow Data Preprocessing: Load the dataset, explore data distribution, and standardize features for improved model performance. Model Building: Define a neural network with input, hidden, and output layers to capture the patterns in the data. Training and Validation: Train the model on 80% of the data, validating it with a 10% validation split to monitor accuracy and loss over epochs. Performance Evaluation: Evaluate the model on the test data and visualize metrics like accuracy and loss. Prediction System: Test the model’s real-world application by classifying new data points. -πŸ’» Tech Stack +## πŸ’» Tech Stack Python: Primary programming language. TensorFlow/Keras: Deep learning framework used to build and train the model. Pandas: For data handling and preprocessing. Google Colab: Provides a cloud-based environment for running the project. -βš™οΈ How to Run +## βš™οΈ How to Run Open the Notebook: Access the Google Colab notebook by uploading it to your Colab environment. Execute Cells: Run each cell in sequence to load data, preprocess it, build, train, and evaluate the model. -Test Predictions: +## Test Predictions: Use the predictive system function within the notebook to classify new data points. -πŸ§ͺ Models and Performance +###πŸ§ͺ Models and Performance The neural network model is evaluated based on: Accuracy: Percentage of correct predictions made by the model. Loss: Measures the error in prediction, helping to monitor overfitting or underfitting. -πŸ“ˆ Results + +##πŸ“ˆ Results The model achieves satisfactory accuracy in distinguishing between benign and malignant tumors. Training and validation metrics are plotted to visualize model performance over epochs. -βœ’οΈ Contributor +###βœ’οΈ Contributor Name: Nethmi Gamage GitHub: [Your GitHub Profile](https://github.com/Nethmi11)
