Book excerpt: The Applied Data Science Workshop on Prostate Cancer Classification and Recognition using Machine Learning and Deep Learning with Python GUI involved several steps and components. The project aimed to analyze prostate cancer data, explore the features, develop machine learning models, and create a graphical user interface (GUI) using PyQt5. The project began with data exploration, where the prostate cancer dataset was examined to understand its structure and content. Various statistical techniques were employed to gain insights into the data, such as checking the dimensions, identifying missing values, and examining the distribution of the target variable. The next step involved exploring the distribution of features in the dataset. Visualizations were created to analyze the characteristics and relationships between different features. Histograms, scatter plots, and correlation matrices were used to uncover patterns and identify potential variables that may contribute to the classification of prostate cancer. Machine learning models were then developed to classify prostate cancer based on the available features. Several algorithms, including Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbors, Decision Trees, Random Forests, Gradient Boosting, Naive Bayes, Adaboost, Extreme Gradient Boosting, Light Gradient Boosting, and Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), were implemented. Each model was trained and evaluated using appropriate techniques such as cross-validation and grid search for hyperparameter tuning. The performance of each machine learning model was assessed using evaluation metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. These metrics provided insights into the effectiveness of the models in accurately classifying prostate cancer cases. Model comparison and selection were based on their performance and the specific requirements of the project. In addition to the machine learning models, a deep learning model based on an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was implemented. The ANN architecture consisted of multiple layers, including input, hidden, and output layers. The ANN model was trained using the dataset, and its performance was evaluated using accuracy and loss metrics. To provide a user-friendly interface for the project, a GUI was designed using PyQt, a Python library for creating desktop applications. The GUI allowed users to interact with the machine learning models and perform tasks such as selecting the prediction method, loading data, training models, and displaying results. The GUI included various graphical components such as buttons, combo boxes, input fields, and plot windows. These components were designed to facilitate data loading, model training, and result visualization. Users could choose the prediction method, view accuracy scores, classification reports, and confusion matrices, and explore the predicted values compared to the actual values. The GUI also incorporated interactive features such as real-time updates of prediction results based on user selections and dynamic plot generation for visualizing model performance. Users could switch between different prediction methods, observe changes in accuracy, and examine the history of training loss and accuracy through plotted graphs. Data preprocessing techniques, such as standardization and normalization, were applied to ensure the consistency and reliability of the machine learning and deep learning models. The dataset was divided into training and testing sets to assess model performance on unseen data and detect overfitting or underfitting. Model persistence was implemented to save the trained machine learning and deep learning models to disk, allowing for easy retrieval and future use. The saved models could be loaded and utilized within the GUI for prediction tasks without the need for retraining. Overall, the Applied Data Science Workshop on Prostate Cancer Classification and Recognition provided a comprehensive framework for analyzing prostate cancer data, developing machine learning and deep learning models, and creating an interactive GUI. The project aimed to assist in the accurate classification and recognition of prostate cancer cases, facilitating informed decision-making and potentially contributing to improved patient outcomes.
