Abstract

Lung cancer continues to be a major contributor to cancer-related mortality across the globe. Timely diagnosis and reliable prediction models play a crucial role in enhancing treatment outcomes and survival rates for patients. The present study focuses on the utilization of machine learning (ML) methods for the prediction of lung cancer. Using datasets that incorporate clinical records, imaging modalities, and genetic profiles, the research assesses the predictive capabilities of multiple ML algorithms such as decision trees, support vector machines, and deep learning architectures. Emphasis is placed on the role of robust feature selection, systematic data preprocessing, and fine-tuning of model parameters to achieve higher levels of accuracy. The findings underline the potential of ML-based approaches as supportive tools in clinical decision-making, offering a pathway toward improved diagnostic precision and personalized interventions in lung cancer management. The results demonstrate that ML can be a powerful tool for early lung cancer detection, offering a promising avenue for reducing mortality rates.
