چکیده

In order to develop an accurate computer-aided diagnosis system for the automatic detection of microcalcification clusters in mammograms. In this study, we presented a new microcalcification clusters detection method by using Gaussian Markov Random Fields (GMRFs) representation. The design and evaluation of the algorithm involved three main phases. In the first phase of the algorithm, a training dataset is employed to train and get the GMRF texture features of each image block and then the cluster center and bias are obtained. In the second phase of the algorithm, we use GMRFs to get it texture feature with a given image block . And finally, the distance between the given image block GMRFs features and the cluster center to make a decision whether it contains a microcalcification cluster or not.

Markov Random Field Extensions using State Space Models

We elaborate on the link between state space models and (Gaussian) Markov random fields. We extend the Markov random field models by generalising the corresponding state space model. It turns out that several non Gaussian spatial models can be analysed by combining approximate Kalman filter techniques with importance sampling. We illustrate the ideas by formulating a model for edge detection in...

  Stochastic models such as mixture models, graphical models, Markov random fields and hidden Markov models have key role in probabilistic data analysis. In this paper, we have learned Gaussian mixture model to the pixels of an image. The parameters of the model have estimated by EM-algorithm.   In addition pixel labeling corresponded to each pixel of true image is made by Bayes rule. In fact, ...

An explicit link between Gaussian fields and Gaussian Markov random fields: the stochastic partial differential equation approach

Continuously indexed Gaussian fields (GFs) are the most important ingredient in spatial statistical modelling and geostatistics. The specification through the covariance function gives an intuitive interpretation of the field properties. On the computational side, GFs are hampered with the big n problem, since the cost of factorizing dense matrices is cubic in the dimension. Although computatio...

Hidden Markov Tree Model Applied to the Detection of Micro-calcification Clusters in Mammograms

This paper is concerned to the application of a relatively new image texture segmentation algorithm named Hidden Markov Tree (HMT) to the detection of micro-calcification clusters in mammograms. The HMT is a wavelet-based tree-structured probabilistic graph that can capture the statistical properties of the coefficients of the wavelet transform. The aim of this approach is, on the one hand, to ...
