Title
Classification of Lung Cancer Cells using deep learning algorithms
Summary
Test the classification performance of our already trained deep learning algorithms on the NLST Dataset, more specifically on the Lung cancer dataset.
Our deep learning algorithms are trained internally within the institution and the NLST dataset will be used to evaluate our findings as it doesn't include a manual segmentation of the cancer cells.
We will first define manually the cancer area on the images and then run our trained algorithm to observe their prediction performance on the NLST Dataset
Aims

- Classification of cancer stage using Deep Learning algorithms on cancer cells images
- Evaluation of Deep Learning algorithms
- Performance evaluation on external data
