Title
Lung cancer investigation based on deep learning; detection, diagnosis and prognosis prediction
Summary
For machine learning, accurate dataset is required in terms of training, test and validation. NLST dataset is composed of big, confident demographic information and CT images. Based on NLST datasets of spiral CT comparison read abnormalities, lung cancer, lung cancer progression, we set aims to develop models of lung segmentation, lung nodule detection, lung cancer diagnosis prediction and prognosis prediction. CT images would be input datum for segmentation by U-Net architecture, the convolutional networks for biomedical image segmentation. After module design and analysis for nodule detection and cancer prediction based on convolutional neural network, we will include lung cancer progression and cause of death data dictionary for the prognosis prediction.
Aims

1.Lung segmentation by U-net based model
2.Lung nodule detection and cancer diagnosis prediction by CNN-based model
3.Prognosis prediction of lung cancer by CNN-based model
