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 · 6,824 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFEATURE DIMENSION REDUCTION FOR EFFICIENT MEDICAL IMAGE RETRIEVAL SYSTEM USING UNIFIED FRAMEWORKYogapriya Jaganathan, Ila VennilaFeature dimensionality reduction problem is a major issue in Content Based Medical Image Retrieval (CBMIR) for the effective management of medical images with the support of visual features for the purpose of diagnosis and educational research field. The proposed CBMIR is used a unified approach based on extraction of visual features, optimized feature selection, classification of optimized features and similarity … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 24 Sep 2013 · 6,989 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn integrated Framework Based on Texture Features, Cuckoo Search and Relevance Vector Machine for Medical Image Retrieval SystemYogapriya Jaganathan, Ila VennilaAs medical images are widely used in healthcare applications, Content Based Medical Image Retrieval (CBMIR) system is needed for physicians to convey effective decisions to patients and for medical research students to learn imaging characteristics for their extensive research based on visual features. However the performance of the retrieval is restricted due to high feature dimensionality of visual features. To … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 24 Sep 2013 · 6,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Retinal Image Registration Using Mutual InformationPradeepa Palraj, Ila VennilaImage registration has tremendous applications in medical industry both in diagnosis and therapy. But registering the retinal images is very difficult task because of the structural and illumination criteria. Normal registration algorithms are proved to be less effective and more complicated for such applications. This study aims at combining two methods of retinal image registration: Vessel based and non-vessel based … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 18 Sep 2013 · 6,694 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Dimensional Reconstruction of Human Heart Surface from Single Image-View Under Different Illumination ConditionsAqeel Al-Surmi, Rahmita Wirza, Mohd Zamrin Dimon et al.The 3D reconstruction from a single-view image is a longstanding issue in computer vision literature, especially in the medical field. Traditional medical imaging techniques that provide information about the heart and which are used to reconstruct the heart model, include Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) images. However, in some cases, they are not available and the applications … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 17 Jun 2013 · 7,618 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Approach Based Medical Image Retrieval System Using Feature Optimized Classification Similarity FrameworkYogapriya Jaganathan, Ila VennilaFor the past few years, massive upgradation is obtained in the pasture of Content Based Medical Image Retrieval (CBMIR) for effective utilization of medical images based on visual feature analysis for the purpose of diagnosis and educational research. The existing medical image retrieval systems are still not optimal to solve the feature dimensionality reduction problem which increases the computational complexity … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 6 Jun 2013 · 7,029 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContent Based Medical Image Retrieval using Binary Association RulesAkila, Uma MaheswariIn this study, we propose a content-based medical image retrieval framework based on binary association rules to augment the results of medical image diagnosis, for supporting clinical decision making. Specifically, this work is employed on scanned Magnetic Resonance brain Images (MRI) and the proposed Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) process is for enhancing relevancy rate of retrieved images. The pertinent … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 30 May 2013 · 6,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Framework for MRI Image Retrieval Using Curvelet Transform and Euclidean DistanceRajakumar, MuttanContent Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) system supports users to retrieve relevant medical images based on their features. Current content based image retrieval systems are incapable of providing exact results to the users. To address this problem a consistent feature extraction method is required for content based medical image retrieval system to extract similar features from the images. In this study … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 12 Apr 2013 · 6,525 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWavelet Transform Based Automatic Lesion Detection in Cervix Images Using Active ContourP. S. Rama Praba, H. RanganathanColposcopy is a medical diagnostic procedure to examine an illuminated, magnified view of the cervix by a colposcope. Most cases of cervical cancer can be prevented through screening programs aimed at detecting precancerous lesions. Colposcopy cervical images are acquired in raw form which contains major cervix lesions, regions outside the cervix and parts of the imaging devices such as speculum. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2013 · 7,786 accessesView PDFCite
