Classification of Pneumoconiosis by Fractal Analysis
Kazunori NAMIKI, Hidefumi Kobatake · Transactions of the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers · 1988
This paper describes a study on fractal analysis of X-ray images of pneumoconiosis. It is shown that local fractal dimension increases monotonically as the profusion of pneumoconiosis opacities increases. And experimental results of automatic classification of pneumoconiosis show the effectiveness of fractal feature parameters.
