Title
Predicting lung cancer from chest radiography features
Summary
Predict lung cancer from chest radiography features through machine learning with radiography and CT images.
Aims

I plan to analyze CT images and chest radiography images of subjects with and without lung cancer along with other patient-related data using machine learning to determine if lung cancer can be deduced from features in the radiography images alone. Specifically, the accuracy of prediction with chest radiography will be evaluated.
