Building a Simple Multilayer Convolutional Network to Detect Cancer in MIAS Mammograms

Previously, we modified the MNIST For ML Beginners Tutorial to process Mini-MIAS imagery [http://jacob.vi/modifying-tensorflows-mnist-for-beginners-tutorial-to-search-for-cancer-in-mammograms/] . The results of this were not great. Let's try this again but with a simple Multilayer Convolutional Network (CNN) in TensorFlow [https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r0.11/tutorials/mnist/pros/…

Publicly Available Mammography Datasets

In order to build a machine learning model to help us with mammography-based diagnosis[1] we will need data to train our models. Thankfully, there are a number of data sets publicly available.
