Micro-calcifications detection algorithm in mammogram based on support vector machine
Yunpeng Liu · Microcomputer Information · 2009
To solve the problem of high false positive detection in micro-calcifications of mammogram, this paper presented a detective algorithm on micro-calcifications. The algorithm first used wavelet and Top-hat to coarse detection on micro-calcifications, and then distributed true or false calcifications on the results of coarse detect with SVM. According to the mammogram database MIAS simulation experiment, the rate of detection calcifications was more than 98%, while the false positive was less than 4% and the algorithm is effectiveness.
