Breast cancer (BC) is one of the leading causes of death in women worldwide. Early diagnosis of this disease can save many women’s lives. The Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BIRADS) is a standard method developed by the American College of Radiology (ACR). However, physicians have had a lot of contradictions in determining the value of BIRADS, and all aspects of patients have not been considered in diagnosing this disease using the methods that have been used so far. In this article, a novel decision support system (DSS) has been presented. In the proposed DSS, firstly, c-mean clustering was used to determine the molecular subtype for patients who did not have this value by combining the mammography reports processing along with hospital information systems (HIS) obtained from their electronic files. Then several classifiers such as convolutional neural networks (CNN), decision tree (DT), multi-level fuzzy min-max neural network (MLF), multi-class support vector machine (SVM), and XGboost were trained to determine the BIRADS. Finally, the values obtained by these classifiers were combined using weighted ensemble learning with the majority voting algorithm to obtain the appropriate value of BIRADS. This helps physicians in the early diagnosis of BC. Finally, the results were evaluated in terms of accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, positive predicted value (PPV), negative predicted value (NPV), and f1-measure by the confusion matrix. The obtained values were, 97.94%, 98.79%, 92.08%, 92.34%, 98.80%, and 92.19% respectively.

Due to the inherent complexity and increasing competition, today's business environment requires new approaches in organizing and managing. One of the new approaches is business intelligence, which is the most critical technology to help manage and deliver smart services, especially business reporting. Business intelligence enables firms to manage their business efficiently to meet the needs of businesses at different macro, middle and even operations levels. In this paper, while investigating the feasibility of implementing business intelligence in firms, designing business intelligence to report and present new services is discussed. In order to demonstrate the capabilities of this type of intelligence, an approach based on the concept of Bayesian network in the application layer of business intelligence is presented. This approach is implemented for one of the companies governed by the Iranian Industrial Development and Renovation Organization, and the effects of important accounting and financial variables on the firm goals are investigated.
