A biologically inspired algorithm for microcalcification cluster detection
The early detection of breast cancer greatly improves prognosis. One of the earliest signs of cancer is the formation of clusters of microcalcifications. We introduce a novel method for microcalcification detection based on a biologically inspired adaptive model of contrast detection. This model is used in conjunction with image filtering based on anisotropic diffusion and curvilinear structure...
متن کاملBiologically-inspired human motion detection
A model of motion detection is described, inspired by the capability of humans to recognise biological motion even from minimal information systems such as moving light displays. The model, a feed-forward backpropagation neural network, uses labelled joint data, analogous to light points in such displays. In preliminary work, the model achieves 100% person classification on a set of 4 artificia...
متن کاملBiologically-Inspired Pattern Recognition For Odor Detection
It is shown that biologically-inspired data aggregation methods result in improved odor discrimination in a gas sensor array. In one typical group of experiments, the correct identification rate achieved by a neural network was improved from 92% without aggregation to 98% with aggregation.
متن کاملMicrocalcification Detection in Digitized Mammograms: A Neurobiologically-Inspired Approach
A Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system is a set of automatic or semi-automatic tools developed to assist radiologists in the detection and/or classification of abnormalities presented in diagnostic images of different modalities. Although on the early phase of research and development CAD systems were criticized by some computer scientists; regardless of this criticism, nowadays’ experimental ...
متن کاملAutomatic microcalcification and cluster detection for digital and digitised mammograms
In this paper we present a knowledge-based approach for the automatic detection of microcalcifications and clusters in mammographic images. Our proposal is based on using local features extracted from a bank of filters to obtain a local description of the microcalcifications morphology. The developed approach performs an initial training step in order to automatically learn and select the most ...
