Abstract: This paper proposes an automatic diagnostic method for breast tumour disease using hybrid Support Vector Machine (SVM) and the Two-Step Clustering Technique. The hybrid technique is aimed at improving the diagnostic accuracy and reducing diagnostic miss-classification, thereby solving the classification problems related to Breast Tumour. To distinguish the hidden patterns of the malignant and benign tumours, the Two-Step algorithm and SVM have been combined and employed to differentiate the incoming tumours. The developed hybrid method enhances the accuracy by 99.1% when examined on the UCI-WBC data set. Moreover, in terms of evaluation measures, it has been shown experimentally results that the hybrid method outperforms the modern classification techniques for breast cancer diagnosis.
