Abstract

With the development of science and technology, data plays an increasingly important role in our daily life. Therefore, much attention has been paid to the field of data mining. Data classification is the premise of data mining, and how well the data is classified directly affects the performance of subsequent models. In particular, in the medical field, data classification can help accurately determine the location of patients' lesions and reduce the workload of doctors in the treatment process. However, medical data has the characteristics of high noise, strong correlation, and high data dimension, which brings great challenges to the traditional classification model. Therefore, it is very important to design an advanced model to improve the effect of medical data classification. In this context, this paper first introduces the structure and characteristics of the convolutional neural network (CNN) model and then demonstrates its unique advantages in medical data processing, especially in data classification. Secondly, we design a new kind of medical data classification model based on the CNN model. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed method achieves higher classification accuracy with faster model convergence speed and the lower training error when compared with conventional machine leaning methods, which has demonstrated the effectiveness of the new method in respect to medical data classification.
