Evolutionary computing model for finding breast cancer masses using image enhancement procedures with artificial intelligent algorithms

In this research, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based image equalization is projected to enhance the contrast of different breast cancer images. Breast cancer is the highest and another important root of tumor disease in females worldwide. Mass and microcalcification clusters are a significant early signs of breast cancer. The mortality rate can effectively be decreased by early diagnosis and treatment. Most practical approach for the early detection and identification of breast cancer diseases is mammography. Mammographic images contaminated by noise usually involve image enhancement techniques to aid interpretation. Contrast enhancement is divided into two categories: development of direct contrast and enhancement of indirect contrast. Indirect contrast improvement is used in the image histogram update. Histogram Equalization (HE) is the modest enhancement of the indirect contrast approach usually used for contrast enhancement. The proposed method's average entropy is 5.3251 with the highest structural similarity index 0.99725. The best contrast improvement of this method is 1.0404 and PSNR is 46.3803. The MSE value is 2157.08. This paper recommends an innovative method of enhancing digital mammogram image contrast based on different histogram equalization approaches. The performance of the projected method has been related to other prevailing techniques using the parameters, namely, discrete entropy, contrast improvement index, structural similarity index measure, mean square error, and peak signal-to-noise ratio. Investigational findings indicate that the projected strategy is efficient and robust and shows better results than others.
