Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAmeliorate Fuzzy C-Means: An Ameliorate Fuzzy C-Means Clustering Algorithm for CT-Lung Image SegmentationJ. Bridget Nirmala, S. GowriEffective and efficient image segmentation acts as a preliminary stage for the computer-aided diagnosis of medical images. For image segmentation, many FCM-based clustering techniques have been proposed. Regrettably, the existing FCM technique does not generate accurate and standardized segmentation results. This is due to the noise present in the image as well as the random initialization of membership values for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 1 Oct 2013 · 6,819 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel Fuzzy Technique for Cancer Detection in Noisy Breast Ultrasound ImagesN. Alamelumangai, J. DeviShreeProblem statement: Detecting tumor areas in breast Ultrasound (US) images is a challenging task. The occurrence of benign areas in breast may result in false identification of malignant areas which may have serious outcome. Approach: The CAD system could act as a major function in the early detection of breast cancer and could decrease the death rate among women with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 12 Mar 2012 · 6,959 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDermoscopic Image Segmentation using Machine Learning AlgorithmL. Padma Suresh, K.L. Shunmuganathan, S.H. Krishna VeniProblem statement: Malignant melanoma is the most frequent type of skin cancer. Its incidence has been rapidly increasing over the last few decades. Medical image segmentation is the most essential and crucial process in order to facilitate the characterization and visualization of the structure of interest in medical images. Approach: This study explains the task of segmenting skin lesions in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 7 Oct 2011 · 7,342 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Computer Aided Diagnosis System for Lung Cancer Detection\Using Support Vector MachineM. Gomathi, P. ThangarajProblem statement: Computer Tomography (CT) has been considered as the most sensitive imaging technique for early detection of lung cancer. Approach: On the other hand, there is a requirement for automated methodology to make use of large amount of data obtained CT images. Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) can be used efficiently for early detection of Lung Cancer. Results: The usage … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,285 accessesView PDF Cite
