Abstract

This paper explores the wide range of applications of machine learning techniques in the field of cancer, with a particular focus on their specific use in the diagnosis and classification of important cancer types such as lung, oral and breast cancer. The paper concludes that machine learning algorithms can assist physicians in detecting cancerous lesions earlier and improve the accuracy of diagnosis. In addition, the paper explores the importance of machine learning in the early detection and treatment of cancer and its potential for collaboration with clinicians. In the future, collaborations across datasets and across healthcare institutions will drive further development of machine learning algorithms, providing more possibilities for personalized medical diagnosis and treatment plans to maximize patient survival and quality of life. The research in this paper can give relevant readers with insight into the potential and application of machine learning in the field of cancer, as well as its important role in improving the efficiency and quality of healthcare services.
