background: in this paper we compare a highly accurate supervised to an unsupervised technique that uses breast thermal images with the aim of assisting physicians in early detection of breast cancer. methods: first, we segmented the images and determined the region of interest. then, 23 features that included statistical, morphological, frequency domain, histogram and gray-level co-occurrence ...

Objective: Nowadays, financial distress prediction is one of the most important research issues in the field of risk management that has always been interesting to banks, companies, corporations, managers and investors. The main objective of this study is to develop a high performance predictive model and to compare the results with other commonly used models in financial distress prediction M...

breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women. the important key to treat the breast cancer is early detection of it because according to many pathological studies more than 80% of all abnormalities are still benign at primary stages; so in recent years, many studies and extensive research done to early detection of breast cancer with higher precision and accuracy.infra-red breast...

In this paper, we propose a model for automatic classification of Animals using different classifiers Nearest Neighbour, Probabilistic Neural Network and Symbolic. Animal images are segmented using maximal region merging segmentation. The Gabor features are extracted from segmented animal images. Discriminative texture features are then selected using the different feature selection algorithm l...

Machine learning-based classification techniques provide support for the decision making process in the field of healthcare, especially in disease diagnosis, prognosis and screening. Healthcare datasets are voluminous in nature and their high dimensionality problem comprises in terms of slower learning rate and higher computational cost. Feature selection is expected to deal with the high dimen...

biomedical datasets usually include a large number of features relative to the number of samples. however, some data dimensions may be less relevant or even irrelevant to the output class. selection of an optimal subset of features is critical, not only to reduce the processing cost but also to improve the classification results. to this end, this paper presents a hybrid method of filter and wr...

The application of feature selection techniques greatly reduces the computational cost of classifying highdimensional data. Feature selection algorithms of varying performance and computational complexities have been studied previously. This paper compares the performance of classical sequential methods, a floating search method, and the “globally optimal” branch and bound algorithm when applie...

Accurate grading for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in biopsy images is important to prognosis and treatment planning. However, visual grading is always time-consuming, subjective, and inconsistent. In this paper, we proposed a novel approach to automatically classifying biopsy images into five grades. At first, a dual morphological reconstruction method was applied to remove noise and accentua...

Even though a great attention has been given on the cervical cancer diagnosis, it is a tuff task to observe the pap smear slide through microscope. Image Processing and Machine learning techniques helps the pathologist to take proper decision. In this paper, we presented the diagnosis method using cervical cell image which is obtained by Pap smear test. Image segmentation performed by multi-thr...
