Lung cancer is the second most common form of cancer in both men and women. It is responsible for at least 25% of all cancer-related deaths in the United States alone. Accurate and early diagnosis of this form of cancer can increase the rate of survival. Computed tomography (CT) imaging is one of the most accurate techniques for diagnosing the disease. In order to improve the classification accuracy of pulmonary lesions indicating lung cancer, this paper presents an improved method for training a densely connected convolutional network (DenseNet). The optimized setting ensures that code prediction error and reconstruction error within hidden layers are simultaneously minimized. To achieve this and improve the classification accuracy of the DenseNet, we propose an improved predictive sparse decomposition (PSD) approach for extracting sparse features from the medical images. The sparse decomposition is achieved by using a linear combination of basis functions over the L2 norm. The effect of dropout and hidden layer expansion on the classification accuracy of the DenseNet is also investigated. CT scans of human lung samples are obtained from The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA) hosted by the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS). The proposed method outperforms seven other neural network architectures and machine learning algorithms with a classification accuracy of 95%.
