Classification of breast cancer microarray data using radial basis function network
Breast cancer is the number one killer disease among women worldwide. Although this disease may affect women and men but the rate of incidence and the number of death is high among women compared to men. Early detection of breast cancer will help to increase the chance of survival since the early tr...

Breast cancer is the number one killer disease among women worldwide. Although this disease may affect women and men but the rate of incidence and the number of death is high among women compared to men. Early detection of breast cancer will help to increase the chance of survival since the early treatment can be decided for the patients who suffer this disease. The advent of the microarray technology has been applied to the medical area in term of classification of cancer and diseases.
