Contour Features for Colposcopic Image Classification by Artificial Neural Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article presents colposcopic image classification based on contour parameters used in a comparison study of different artificial neural networks and the knearest neighbors reference method. In this study, significant image data bases are used (283 samples) from which a set of original parameters is extracted to characterize the attribute of contour. More precisely, we quantify the notion of sharp contours vs blurred contours in computing spatial parameters based on the number of small regions near boundaries of objects and frequency parameters based on power spectrum of lines cutting these boundaries. Experimental results show the feasibility of this study and the efficiency of the set of parameters since 95.8% of contour image set has been correctly classified.

Effective Feature Selection for Pre-Cancerous Cervix Lesions Using Artificial Neural Networks
Since most common form of cervical cancer starts with pre-cancerous changes, a flawless detection of these changes becomes an important issue to prevent and treat the cervix cancer. There are 2 ways to stop this disease from developing. One way is to find and treat pre-cancers before they become true cancers, and the other is to prevent the pre-cancers in the first place. The presented approach...

In this paper, we present a machine vision system that was developed on the basis of neural networks to identify twelve houseplants. Image processing system was used to extract 41 features of color, texture and shape from the images taken from front and back of the leaves. The features were fed into the neural network system as the recognition criteria and inputs. Multilayer perceptron (MLP) ne...

Typically, the diagnosis of a tumor is done through surgical sampling, which is more precise with existing methods. The difference is that this is an aggressive, time consuming and expensive way. In the statistical method, due to the complexity of the brain tissues and the similarity between the cancerous cells and the natural tissues, even a radiologist or an expert physician may also be in er...
