Source abstract
Cancer of bone marrow is classified as Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), an abnormal growth of lymphoid progenitor cells. It affects both children and adults and is the most predominant form of infantile cancer. Currently, there has been significant growth in the identification and therapy of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Therefore, a method is required that is capable to accurately assessing risk by an appropriate treatment strategy that takes into account all relevant clinical, morphological, cytogenetic, and molecular aspects. However, to enhance survival and quality of life for those afflicted by this aggressive haematological malignancy, more research and clinical trials are required to address the issues associated with resistance, relapse, and long-term toxicity. Consequently, a deep optimized Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) has been proposed for the early diagnosis and detection of ALL. The design of the deep optimized CNN model consisted of five convolutional blocks with thirteen convolutional layers and five max pool layers. The proposed deep optimized CNN model is tuned using the hyperparameters such as 30 epochs, batch size 32 and optimizers, namely Adam and Adamax. Out of the two optimizers, the proposed deep optimized CNN model has outperformed using Adam optimizer with the points of accuracy and precision as 0.96 and 0.95, respectively.
