Mammogram Image Segmentation Using Rough Clustering
نویسندگان
چکیده
The mammography is the most effective procedure to diagnosis the breast cancer at an early stage. This paper proposes mammogram image segmentation using Rough K-Means (RKM) clustering algorithm. The median filter is used for pre-processing of image and it is normally used to reduce noise in an image. The 14 Haralick features are extracted from mammogram image using Gray Level Cooccurrence Matrix (GLCM) for different angles. The features are clustered by K-Means, Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) and Rough K-Means algorithms to segment the region of interests for classification. The result of the segmentation algorithms compared and analyzed using Mean Square Error (MSE) and Root Means Square Error (RMSE). It is observed that the proposed method produces better results that the existing methods. Keywords— Mammogram, Data mining, Image Processing, Feature Extraction, Rough KMeans and Image

Image Segmentation: Type–2 Fuzzy Possibilistic C-Mean Clustering Approach
Image segmentation is an essential issue in image description and classification. Currently, in many real applications, segmentation is still mainly manual or strongly supervised by a human expert, which makes it irreproducible and deteriorating. Moreover, there are many uncertainties and vagueness in images, which crisp clustering and even Type-1 fuzzy clustering could not handle. Hence, Type-...

متن کاملA Novel Pectoral Removal Approach in Digital Mammogram Segmentation and USRR Feature Selection
Detection of micro calcification based on textural image segmentation and classification is the most effective early-diagnosis of breast cancer. The aim of segmentation is to extract a breast region by estimation of a breast skin-line and a pectoral muscle as well as removing radiographic artifacts and the background of the mammogram. The intensity value is taken using histogram function. After...
