Robust Classification of MR Brain Images Based on Multiscale Geometric Analysis

چکیده
The widely used feature representation scheme for magnetic resonance (MR) image classification based on low-frequency subband (LFS) coefficients of wavelet transform (WT) is ineffective in presence of common MR imaging (MRI) artifacts (small rotation, low dynamic range etc.). The directional information present in the high-frequency subbands (HFSs) can be used to improve the performance. Moreover, little attention has been paid to the newly developed multiscale geometric analysis (MGA) tools (curvelet, contourlet, and ripplet etc.) in classifying brain MR images. In this paper, we compare various multiresolution analysis (MRA)/MGA transforms, such as traditional WT, curvelet, contourlet and ripplet, for brain MR image classification. Both the LFS and the high-frequency subbands (HFSs) are used to construct image representative feature vector invariant to common MRI artifacts. The investigations include the effect of different decomposition levels and filters on classification performance. By comparing results, we give the best candidate for classifying brain MR images in presence of common artifacts.

We propose an automatic and accurate technique for classifying normal and abnormal magnetic resonance (MR) images of human brain. Ripplet transform Type-I (RT), an efficient multiscale geometric analysis (MGA) tool for digital images, is used to represent the salient features of the brain MR images. The dimensionality of the image representative feature vector is reduced by principal component ...

متن کاملA Multiscale Feature Detector for Morphological Analysis of the Brain
Feature detection on MR images has largely relied on intensity classification and gradient-based magnitudes. In this paper, we propose the use of phase congruency as a more robust detection method, as it is based on a multiscale intensity-invariant measure. We show the application of phase congruency for the detection of cortical sulci from T2 weighted MRI. Sulci represent important landmarks i...
