This paper is concerned with the development of a novel classifier for automatic mass detection of mammograms, based on contourlet feature extraction in conjunction with statistical and fuzzy classifiers. In this method, mammograms are segmented into regions of interest (ROI) in order to extract features including geometrical and contourlet coefficients. The extracted features benefit from...

Water pressure tests are a common method of soil exploration in engineering geology. The classification of water pressure test results is usually carried out by expert geologists. This paper presents a method for the automatic classification of water pressure test curves. After discussing the features extracted from the test curves the fuzzy rule base used for classification is described. Some ...
