چکیده

Breast cancer is one of the dreadful diseases that seriously affect women. It is proven that this dreadful disease ends the life of one among ten women. Mammogram is an efficient technique to detect breast cancer at earlier stages. This paper aims to survey image enhancement and segmentation on mammograms. Mammogram image segmentation aims at partitioning the image into meaningful Regions of Interest (RoI).

Digital Mammogram Segmentation using Non - Shannon Measures of Entropy

Abstract— Mammogram analysis usually refers to processing of mammograms with the goal of finding abnormality presented in the mammogram. Mammogram segmentation is one of the most critical tasks in automatic mammogram image analysis. Main purpose of mammogram segmentation is to segment suspicious regions by means of an adaptive threshold. In image processing, one of the most efficient techniques...

A Suruliandi and G Murugeswari: Empirical Evaluation of Lbp and Its Derivates for Abnormality Detection in Mammogram Images

Digital image processing techniques are useful in abnormality detection in mammogram images. Recently, texture based image segmentation of mammogram images has become popular due to its better precision and accuracy. Local Binary Pattern has been a recently proposed texture descriptor which attracted the research community rigorously towards texture based analysis of digital images. Many textur...
