A review and comparative study of cancer detection using machine learning: SBERT and SimCSE application.

The XGBoost model, which had the highest overall accuracy of 73 ± 0.13 % using SBERT embeddings and 75 ± 0.12 % using SimCSE embeddings, was the best performing classifier. In light of these findings, it can be concluded that incorporating sentence representations from SimCSE's sentence transformer only marginally improved the performance of machine learning models.
