description Cancer is the second leading cause of mortality worldwide, behind heart diseases, accounting for 10 million deaths each year. This study focusses on adenocarcinoma, which is a target of a number of anticancer therapies presently being tested in medical and pharmaceutical studies. The innovative study for a therapeutic vaccine comprises the investigation of gold nanoparticles and their influence on the immune response for the annihilation of cancer cells. The model is intended to be realized using Quantitative-Structure Activity Relationship (QSAR) methods, explicitly artificial neural networks combined with fuzzy rules, to enhance automated properties of neural nets with human perception characteristics. Image processing techniques such as morphological transformations and watershed segmentation are used to extract and calculate certain molecular characteristics from hyperspectral images. The quantification of single-cell properties is one of the key resolutions, representing the treatment efficiency in therapy of colon and rectum cancerous conditions. This was accomplished by using manually counted cells as a reference point for comparing segmentation results. The early findings acquired are conclusive for further study; thus, the extracted features will be used in the feature optimization process first, followed by neural network building of the required model.
