Fixes internal inconsistencies in the breast cancer classification report and regenerates both publication PDFs.

  • Confusion matrix corrected to 43 malignant / 71 benign (114 total), consistent with 113/114 accuracy and the SMOTE training counts; kappa and MCC recomputed.
  • Clinical metrics restated with malignant as the positive class: 100% sensitivity (43/43), 98.59% specificity, 97.73% PPV, 100% NPV. Native-encoding tables are labeled as such.
  • CV confidence interval corrected from [96.27%, 100.65%] to a t-interval of [97.61%, 99.31%].
  • Removed unsupported claims: exceeding pathologist agreement / clinical viability, IEEE 2830-2025 / ISO / EU AI Act compliance, and a demographic fairness audit (WDBC has no demographic fields).
  • Abstract notes the work extends the author's two-semester RIT capstone; role updated to Machine Learning Engineer.

- Reconcile confusion matrix with reported accuracy (43 malignant / 71 benign, 113/114)
- Report clinical metrics with malignant as the positive class (100% sensitivity,
  98.59% specificity, 97.73% PPV, 100% NPV); recompute kappa and MCC
- Replace impossible CV confidence interval with a t-interval [97.61%, 99.31%]
- Remove human-pathologist comparison, standards-compliance claims, and the
  demographic fairness audit (WDBC has no demographic fields)
- Note that the work extends the RIT two-semester capstone
- Regenerate publication PDFs
