Abstract: Highlights•ROI-dependent mammogram classification is expensive.•Strategies that do not use ROIs result in decreased diagnostic accuracy or increased computational effort.•Attentional mechanisms make it difficult to focus on tumor regions.•Targeted feature screening to improve model classification performance.•Computationally friendly full-width mammogram classification methods.
