Sumario:Diagnosis of different breast cancer stages using histopathology whole slide images (WSI) is the gold standard in determining the grade of tissue metastasis. Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) assists medical experts as a second opinion tool in early detection to prevent further proliferation. The field of pathology has advanced so rapidly that it is possible to obtain high-quality images from glass slides. Patches from the region of interest in histopathology images are extracted and trained using artificial neural network models. The trained model primarily analyzes and predicts the histology images for the benign or malignant class to which it belongs. Classification of medical images focuses on the training of models with layers of abstraction to distinguish between these two classes with less false-positive rates. The learning rate is the crucial hyperparameter used during the training of deep convolutional neural networks (DCNN) to improve model accuracy. This work emphasizes the relevance of the dynamic learning rate than the fixed learning rate during the training of networks. The dynamic learning rate varies with preset conditions between the lower and upper boundaries and repeats at different iterations. The performance of the model thus improves and attains comparatively high accuracy with fewer iterations.
