The use of hybrid classifier to assist in the diagnosis of lip lesions in thermal images: a preliminary study
This research presents a methodology for the classification of actinic chelitis and lip cancer in thermal images. A hybrid classifier that uses two methods of supervised learning (SVM and KNN) to classify patient images into three groups: healthy, squamous cell carcinoma and actinic cheilitis (malig...

Summary: | This research presents a methodology for the classification of actinic chelitis and lip cancer in thermal images. A hybrid classifier that uses two methods of supervised learning (SVM and KNN) to classify patient images into three groups: healthy, squamous cell carcinoma and actinic cheilitis (malignant potentially disorder) was developed. The classifier obtained results that were equivalent to the results of the biopsies of the patients, which proves the efficiency of the developed method and guarantees its use in a CAD system to assist in the diagnosis of actinic cheilitis and lip cancer. |
