Abstract
This paper describes the evaluation of an applicant of the ARTMAP neural network model to the diagnosis of breast cancer from fine-needle aspirates of the breast. The network has previously demonstrated very high performance when used with high-quality data provided by an expert pathologist. New performance results are provided for its use with "noisy" data provided by an inexperienced pathologist......
