Transfer Learning for Oral Cancer Detection using Microscopic Images [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Oral cancer has more than 83% survival rate if detected in its early stages, however, only 29% of cases are currently detected early. Deep learning techniques can detect patterns of oral cancer cells and can aid in its early detection. In this work, we present the first results of neural networks for oral cancer detection using microscopic images.
