Abstract

Abstract: Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Cancer research is vital as the prognosis of cancer enables clinical applications for patients. In this study, we have proposed the Stacked Ensemble Model (Stacking of bagged and boosted learners) for the automatic disease diagnosis. The experimental results prove the superiority of the proposed method to conventional machine learning techniques. In the empirical study, the performance of eight data handling methods and 14 classification methods is compared to obtain prediction results. The performance of the model has been evaluated on five benchmark datasets. The appreciable Area under the Curve scores achieved by the proposed methodology on Cervical Cancer (0.98), Mesothelioma (0.93), Breast Cancer (0.99), Prostate Cancer (0.97), and Hepatitis‐C Virus (0.998) datasets make this work more significant than the previously published works. The experimental results show that our proposed method is superior to conventional machine learning techniques and the proposed model contributes in the form of an efficient computational model.
