This study introduces a computationally efficient convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture enhanced with transfer learning for multi-cancer detection using biomedical images. The proposed lightweight CNN model is designed to reduce computational complexity while maintaining high classification performance, making it suitable for deployment in resource-constrained environments.

Radiomics enables extraction of quantitative imaging biomarkers from medical images and has become an important tool for computer-aided cancer diagnosis. However, radiomics datasets are typically high-dimensional with limited samples, making feature selection a critical step for building reliable predictive models.
arXiv:2606. 16991v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multiphasic contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is widely used for abdominal lesion characterization, yet it carries inherent risks of contrast-induced nephropathy, escalates acquisition burden, and heavily contributes to radiologist workload.
