Mobile multi-agent system for medical image retrieval
A. Liu, R. Martens, Raman B. Paranjape, Luigi Benedicenti · 2002
A mobile multi-agent image retrieval system with application in mammography is presented. The image retrieval strategy suggested uses the inherent strengths of mobile agents to return the best possible matches from a distributed set of images in digital medical image libraries available on the Internet. The approach proposed is to perform a simulation of the digital library and to study the dynamics of the system from the perspective of parallel processing, intelligent pre-processing and communication.
