Reduced Transformed Features Based Breast Mammograms Classification
Muhammad Talha, Ghazali Solung · 2013
Mammography is a particular type of imaging that uses a low-dose x-ray system to examine breasts. A mammography exam, called a mammogram, is used to aid in the early detection and diagnosis of breast diseases in women. In this paper, we have proposed a method that consists of combination of different methods. First we have performed enhancement on breast mammogram to enhance the image quality. We have used Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (CLAHE) for enhancement. Discrete wavelet transform based features has been extracted which have been used for classification. Principle component analysis has used for features reduction and selection. Different classifiers have been used for classification into benign and malignant. It has been noted that results are very much satisfactory. We have used MIAS data set for experimentation purpose. (Muhammad Talha, Ghazali Solung.
