چکیده مقاله:

Breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women. Mammography remains today the best technology to detect breast cancer, early and efficiently, to distinguish between benign and malignant diseases. Several techniques in image processing and analysis have been developed to address this problem. In this paper, we propose a new solution to the problem of computer aided detection and interpretation for breast cancer. In the proposed approach, a Local Chan-Vese (LCV) model is used for the mass lesion segmentation step to isolate a suspected abnormality in a mammogram. In the classification step, we propose a two-step process: firstly, we use the hierarchical fuzzy partitioning (HFP) to construct fuzzy partitions from data, instead of using the only human information, available from expert knowledge, which are not sufficiently accurate and confronted to errors or inconsistencies. Secondly,fuzzy decision tree induction are proposed to extract classification knowledge from a set of  feature-based examples. Fuzzy decision trees are first used to determine the class of the abnormality detected (well-defined mass, ill-defined mass, architectural distortion, or speculated masses), then, to identify the Severity of the abnormality, which can be benign or malignant. The proposed system is tested by using the images from Mammographic Image Analysis Society[MIAS] database. Experimental results show the efficiency of the proposed approach, resulting in an accuracy rate of 87, a sensitivity of 82.14%, and good specificity of 91.42

Fuzzy Decision Tree Induction Approach for Mining Fuzzy Association Rules

Decision Tree Induction (DTI), one of the Data Mining classification methods, is used in this research for predictive problem solving in analyzing patient medical track records. In this paper, we extend the concept of DTI dealing with meaningful fuzzy labels in order to express human knowledge for mining fuzzy association rules. Meaningful fuzzy labels (using fuzzy sets) can be defined for each...

Look-ahead based fuzzy decision tree induction

Decision tree induction is typically based on a top-down greedy algorithm that makes locally optimal decisions at each node. Due to the greedy and local nature of the decisions made at each node, there is considerable possibility of instances at the node being split along branches such that instances along some or all of the branches require a large number of additional nodes for classification...

A local region-based Chan-Vese model for image segmentation

In this paper, a new region-based active contour model, namely local region-based Chan–Vese (LRCV) model, is proposed for image segmentation. By considering the image local characteristics, the proposed model can effectively and efficiently segment images with intensity inhomogeneity. To reduce the dependency on manual initialization in many active contour models and for an automatic segmentati...
