The aim of the present study was to use the elastic net regression and artificial neural network (ANN) models in diagnosing and predicting factors affecting BC mortality. <b>Study Design:</b> A cross-sectional study.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The data of 2,836 people with BC during 2014-2018 were analyzed in this study. Information was registered in the cancer registration system of Kerman University of Medical Sciences. Death status was considered the dependent variable, while age, morphology, tumor differentiation, residence status, and residence place were regarded as independent variables. Sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, area under the <i>receiver operating characteristic</i> curve (AUC), precision, and F1-score were used to compare the models.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Based on the test set, the elastic net regression determined factors affecting BC mortality (with sensitivity of 0.631, specificity of 0.814, AUC of 0.629, accuracy of 0.792, precision of 0.318, and F1-score of 0.42) and ANN did so (with sensitivity of 0.66, specificity of 0.748, AUC of 0.704, accuracy of 0.738, precision of 0.265, and F1-score of 0.37).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The sensitivity and AUC of the ANN model were higher than those of the elastic net regression, but the specificity, accuracy, precision, and F1-score of the elastic net were higher than those of the ANN.
