Summary: | Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed among U.S. women. In this paper we have done some experiments for tumor detection in digital mammogram images. First of all, we have described a method that segments the breast image automatically. As a preprocessing, we have used fuzzy based noise removal filter that removes noise. Then for segmentation, we have provided a background removal method. We have extracted eight different multi domains features. For accurate classification, we have used two different classification techniques: Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Multilayer Perceptrons (MLP). We have compared our results with a method that has used 8 features. We have shown results that four features are not sufficient for classification. Results show the superiority of the proposed algorithm in terms of sensitivity, specificity and accuracy. We have used MIAS [7] database of mammography. |
