Enhancing healthcare predictions with deep learning: insights from image datasets
This study builds on prior research to improve healthcare predictions using deep learning with image datasets. Unlike numerical data, image processing in deep learning faces challenges such as large data volume, storage demands, computational resource needs, manual annotation, class imbalance, overfitting, and scalability issues. Effective solutions require robust preprocessing, efficient computation, thoughtful model design, and ethical considerations. This paper presents a 3-layer deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) to integrate image datasets, achieving 99% accuracy on benchmark datasets, including the brain tumor medical dataset (BTMD). The model employs dropout regularisation and incorporates numeric data insights, showcasing adaptability across different healthcare data types. These results highlight the significant potential of DCNNs for high-accuracy predictions in medical applications.
