Lung cancer
remains one of the leading causes of cancer related deaths worldwide, largely
due to late-stage diagnosis. This project presents a machine learning-based
system for the early detection of lung cancer using CT and X- ray images. The system
utilizes two supervised learning algorithms Logistic Regression and Support
Vector Machine (SVM) to classify lung images as either normal or cancerous. Key
preprocessing steps, including grayscale conversion, resizing, normalization,
and flattening, is applied to standardize the input data. Feature engineering
techniques such as standardization and label encoding further enhance the
model’s learning capability. Both models are trained and evaluated using
labeled image data, achieving outstanding results with 100% accuracy on the
test set. A single-image prediction module is also developed to enable
real-time diagnosis, outputting a simple “Yes” or “No” based on the model's
prediction. The system is lightweight, accurate, and user-friendly, offering potential
integration into real-world clinical workflows. This work serves as a
foundational step toward deploying AI-assisted lung cancer diagnosis systems in
healthcare environments.
