Mammogram Mass Segmentation Using Fractals
Vishnu Sivakumar, P. Shanmugavadivu · Journal of Computational and Theoretical Nanoscience · 2019
A new fractal-based technique for the segmentation of masses from digital mammograms is shown in this paper. This proposed fractal-based approach aims to detect and segment the masses from mammograms after successful suppression of pectoral muscle. This paper identifies and suppresses the pectoral muscle efficiently from the input mammogram and further segments the masses precisely with the help of fractal dimensions and fractal hurst based thresholding oriented computation. This approach is proved to be efficient in getting accurate segmentation results that guarantees the virtue of the projected technique.
