An Improved Archimedes Optimization-aided Multi-scale Deep Learning Segmentation with dilated ensemble CNN classification for detecting lung cancer using CT images.

Early detection of lung cancer is necessary to prevent deaths caused by lung cancer. But, the identification of cancer in lungs using Computed Tomography (CT) scan based on some deep learning algorithms does not provide accurate results. A novel adaptive deep learning is developed with heuristic improvement.
