Abstract:
Background: The main objective of the Internet of Things (IoT) has significantly influenced
and altered technology, such as interconnection, interoperability, and sensor devices. To
ensure seamless healthcare facilities, it's essential to use the benefits of ubiquitous IoT services to
assist patients by monitoring vital signs and automating functions. In healthcare, the current stateof-
the-art equipment cannot detect many cancers early, and almost all humans have lost their lives
due to this lethal sickness. Hence, early diagnosis of cancer is a significant difficulty for medical
experts and researchers.
Methods: The method for identifying cancer, together with machine learning and IoT, yield reliable
results. In the Proposed model FCM system, the SVM methodology is reviewed to classify either
benign or malignant disease. In addition, we applied a recursive feature selection to identify
characteristics from the cancer dataset to boost the classifier system's capabilities.
Results: This method is being applied in conjunction with fuzzy cluster-based augmentation, and
classification can employ continuous monitoring to forecast lung cancer to improve patient care.
In the process of effective image segmentation, the fuzzy-clustering methodology is implemented,
which is used for the goal of obtaining transition region data.
Conclusion: The Otsu thresholding method is applied to help recover the transition region from a
lung cancer image. Furthermore, morphological thinning on the right edge and the segmentationimproving
pictures are employed to increase segmentation performance. In future work, we intend
to design a prototype to ensure real-time analysis to provide enhanced results. Thus, this work
may open doors to carry patent-based outcomes.
