Spectral clustering for TRUS images
BACKGROUND Identifying the location and the volume of the prostate is important for ultrasound-guided prostate brachytherapy. Prostate volume is also important for prostate cancer diagnosis. Manual outlining of the prostate border is able to determine the prostate volume accurately, however, it is time consuming and tedious. Therefore, a number of investigations have been devoted to designing a...
متن کاملGrlm for Prostate Cancer Trus Medical Images
Ultrasound imaging is one of the promising techniques for early detection of prostate cancer. There are five steps involved in processing the ultrasound images such as pre-processing, segmentation, feature extraction, feature selection, and classification. In this paper, the Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS) images are preprocessed with M3 filter. Then it is segmented by using DBSCAN clustering aft...
متن کاملA Robust Clustering Technique for Multi-spectral Satellite Images
A robust clustering technique is developped for multi-spectral satellite images. The observed image data are assumed to come from a mixture of multi-variate normal densities and the number of densities is assumed to be known. In the clustering technique the parameters of the densities are tentatively estimated by a multi-dimensional histogram and the minimum distance clustering method. Using th...

متن کاملSpectral Clustering Ensemble and Unsupervised Clustering for Land cover Identification in High Spatial Resolution Satellite Images
Unsupervised clustering plays a dominant role in detailed landcover identification specifically in agricultural and environmental monitoring of high spatial resolution remote sensing images. A method called Approximate Spectral Clustering enables spectral partitioning for big datasets to extract clusters with different characteristic without a parametric model. Various information types are use...
