ABSTRACT

The use of machine learning (ML) techniques in the healthcare industry has revolutionized the search for early cancer detection. This thorough analysis examines the various ways that machine learning can be used to detect and diagnose cancer in its early stages. The synthesis covers a range of machine learning techniques, such as ensemble methods, deep learning, and supervised and unsupervised learning, and highlights how each has contributed to the complex field of cancer diagnosis. Based on classification techniques, supervised learning models can identify patterns in labeled datasets and differentiate between malignant samples. Unsupervised learning methods like anomaly detection and clustering help identify abnormal patterns that point to early-stage malignancies and provide a more sophisticated understanding of cancer subtypes. Deep learning has become a potent technique for analyzing sequential data and medical pictures, respectively, mainly when applied to Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs). Transfer learning enables fast model construction, especially when few labeled datasets are available, allowing for quick implementation in clinical situations. As research come to the end of this investigation, it is clear that effective ML integration into cancer detection workflows requires cooperation between data scientists, physicians, and domain specialists. The review finishes with suggestions for furthering research, implementing ethical issues, and encouraging international cooperation. These suggestions provide a path forward for the continuous development of machine learning with the goal of early cancer identification and better patient outcomes
