PT Journal AU AN Ruchai VI Kober KA Dorofeev VN Karnaukhov Mikhail Mozerov TI Classification of breast abnormalities using a deep convolutional neural network and transfer learning SO Journal of Communications Technology and Electronics PY 2021 BP 778–783 VL 66 IS 6 DI 10.1134/S1064226921060206 AB A new algorithm for classification of breast pathologies in digital mammography using a convolutional neural network and transfer learning is proposed. The following pretrained neural networks were chosen: MobileNetV2, InceptionResNetV2, Xception, and ResNetV2. All mammographic images were pre-processed to improve classification reliability. Transfer training was carried out using additional data augmentation and fine-tuning. The performance of the proposed algorithm for classification of breast pathologies in terms of accuracy on real data is discussed and compared with that of state-of-the-art algorithms on the available MIAS database.
