Title
Detecting Lung Cancer by Applying SOTA Deep Learning Models to Chest X-Ray Images
Summary
In this study, we aim to investigate the detection performance by applying SOTA deep learning models to detecting lung cancer chest X-ray images, which may be helpful for early and convenient diagnosis of lung cancer.

We will first examine the performance of SOTA deep learning models to chest X-Ray images and then transfer the learning to other types of cancer data, and see if the latest AI techniques and models may be used for the diagnosis of the cancers.
Aims

Convenient diagnosis of lung cancer by using chest X-ray images with deep learning models
