Review on the Application of Machine Learning to Cancer Research

Abstract

This study reviews the application of machine learning through different algorithms in cancer research In recent years the introduction of machine learning has been an exciting tool that enhances cancer research which has improved statistical method of speeding up both fundamental and applied research considerably The application of machine learning goes around in predicting the future events and outcomes with the available datasets There is an indication that on yearly bases up to 14 million new cancer patients are diagnosed by Pathologists round the world and they are people whose conditions are uncertain Definitely the diagnoses and prognoses of cancer have been performed by Pathologists The research on machine learning flourished in 1980s and 1990s and information become digitalized through improved artificial network connectivity and computational power
