Mammography is a special CT scan technique, which uses X-rays and high-resolution film to detect breast tumors efficiently.Mammography is used only in breast tumor detection, and images help physicians to detect diseases due to cells normal growth.Mammography is an effective imaging modality for early breast cancer abnormalities detection.Computer aided diagnosis helps the radiologists to detect abnormalities earlier than traditional procedures.In this paper, an automated mammogram classification method is presented.Symlet, singular value decomposition and weighted histograms are used for feature extraction in mammograms.The extracted features are classified using naï ve bayes, random forest and neural network algorithms.
