Title
Early detection of lung cancer with deep learning and graph databases
Summary
In this investigation, we propose a new approach that combines deep learning mix with a knowledge graph database.The knowledge graph aims at representing as a graph all relevant information around lung cancer such as symptoms, anatomical details, etc. In a second step, by using this graph, we will select subsets of images with the aim of training neural network models that help early lung cancer detection.
Aims

To improve current DL approaches on Radiography with proper examples for training.
To represent all relevant information related to decision support into a knowledge graph.
