[0031]. Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM) is a powerful ensemble learning technique that sequentially builds a series of weak learners, typically decision trees, to create a strong predictive model. It iteratively corrects the errors made by the previous models and focuses on minimizing a loss function to improve predictive performance. In the context of cancer detection from X-ray images, GBM can be trained on a dataset of annotated X-ray images to distinguish between cancerous and non-cancerous cases. By analyzing various features extracted from the images, such as texture, shape, and intensity, GBM can learn to accurately classify new X-ray images as indicative of cancer or not. GBM offers several advantages for cancer detection in X-ray images. It can effectively handle high dimensional feature spaces and complex relationships between features, making it suitable for capturing subtle patterns indicative of cancer. Additionally, GBM is robust to noise and outliers in the data, which are common challenges in medical imaging datasets. By leveraging the collective strength of multiple weak learners, GBM can achieve high predictive accuracy and generalization performance, thus providing valuable support for medical professionals in diagnosing cancer from X-ray images with confidence and accuracy.
