Sumario:In present paper, we propose a Hybrid classifier based particle swarm optimization (PSO) and Neural Network method for supporting the diagnosis of prostate cancer. algorithm combining particle swarm optimization algorithm with back propagation neural network (BPNN) algorithm, also referred to as BPNN- PSO algorithm, is proposed to train the feed forward neural network (FNN). The results show that the proposed BP based PSO algorithm can achieve very high diagnosis accuracy (98%) and it proving its usefulness in support of clinical decision process of prostate cancer.
