Deep learning methods have been used extensively in many medical domains recently, especially in detection and classification applications. Studying histological images for the automatic diagnosis of BC is important for patients and their prognosis. Due to the complication and variety of histology images, manual examination needs extensive experience from pathologists can be difficult and susceptible to errors. Therefore, publicly accessible datasets called BreakHis and Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (IDC) are used in this study to analyze histopathological images of BC. Next, using Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Networks (SRGAN), which creates high-resolution images from low-quality images, the gathered images from BreakHis and IDC are pre-processed to provide useful results in the prediction stage. The components of conventional Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) loss functions and effective sub-pixel nets were combined to create the concept of SRGAN. After that, the high-quality images are sent to the data augmentation stage, where new data points are created by making small adjustments to the dataset using Rotation, Random Cropping, Mirroring, and Color-Shifting. Next, using Inception V3 and Resnet-50, Patch-based Feature Extraction (PFE-INC-RES) is employed to extract the features from the augmentation. After the features have been extracted, the next step involves processing them and applying Transductive Long Short-Term Memory (TLSTM) to improve classification accuracy by decreasing the number of false positives. The results of suggested PFE-INC-RES is evaluated using existing methods on the BreakHis dataset, with respect to accuracy (99.84%), specificity (99.71%), sensitivity (99.78%), and F1-score (99.80%). While the suggested PFE-INC-RES performed better in IDC dataset based on F1-score (99.08%), accuracy (99.79%), specificity (98.97%), and sensitivity (99.17%), respectively.
