Abstract

A revised group method of data handling (GMDH)-type neural network algorithm using various kinds of neuron is applied to the medical image diagnosis of lung cancer. The optimum neural network architecture for medical image diagnosis is automatically organized using a revised GMDH-type neural network algorithm, and the regions of lung cancer are recognized and extracted accurately. In this revised GMDH-type neural network algorithm, polynomial-type and radial basis function (RBF)-type neurons are used for organizing the neural network architecture in order to fit the complexity of the nonlinear system.
