Abstract
Intelligent technology can assist in the diagnosis and treatment of disease, which would pave the way towards precision medicine in the coming decade. As a key focus of medical research, the diagnosis and prognosis of cancer play an important role in the future survival of patients. In this work, a diagnostic method based on nano-resolution imaging was proposed to meet the demand for precise detection methods in medicine and scientific research. The cell images scanned by AFM were recognized by cell feature engineering and machine learning classifiers. A feature ranking method based on the importance of features to responses was used to screen features closely related to categorization and optimization of feature combinations, which helps to understand the feature differences between cell types at the micro level. The results showed that the Bayesian optimized back propagation neural network has accuracy rates of 90.37% and 92.68% on two cell datasets (HL-7702 & SMMC-7721 and GES-1 & SGC-7901), respectively. This provides an automatic analysis method for identifying cancer cells or abnormal cells, which can help to reduce the burden of medical or scientific research, decrease misjudgment and promote precise medical care for the whole society.
