Objective:The death rate of breast tumour is falling as there is progress in its research area. However, it is the most common disease among women. It is a great challenge in designing a machine learning model to evaluate the performance of the classification of breast tumour. Methods: Implementing an efficient classification methodology will support in resolving the complications in analyzing breast cancer. This proposed model employs two machine learning (ML) algorithms for the categorization of breast tumour; Decision Tree and K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) algorithm is used for the breast tumour classification. Result: This classification includes the two levels of disease as benign or malignant. These two machine learning algorithms are verified using the Wisconsin Diagnostic Breast Cancer (WDBC) dataset after feature selection using Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The comparison of these two ML algorithms is done using the standard performance metrics. Conclusion: The comparative analysis results indicate that the KNN classifier outperforms the result of the decision-tree classifier in the breast cancer classification.
One of the severe and prolonged disorder of the human brain which disturbs the behavioral characteristics of an individual completely such as interruption in the thinking process and speech is schizophrenia. It is a manifestation of many symptoms such as hallucinations, functional deterioration, disorganized speech and hearing sounds and speeches that are non-existent. In this paper, a computerized approach based on optimization and classification is done to analyze the classification of schizophrenia from Electroencephalography (EEG) signals. As EEG can analyze a lot of brain disorders and is used to study the diseases of the brain in an in-depth manner, it can be used to analyze the schizophrenia EEG signals. In this paper, three feature extraction techniques are employed such as Partial Least Squares (PLS) Non linear Regression technique, Expectation Maximization based Principal Component Analysis (EM-PCA) technique and Isometric Mapping (Isomap) technique. The extracted features are further optimized with four optimization algorithms such as Flower Pollination algorithm, Eagle strategy using different evolution algorithm, Backtracking search optimization algorithm and Group search optimization algorithm. The optimized values are then classified with varied versions of both Adaboost classifier and Naïve Bayesian Classifier. The individual results show that for normal cases, Isomap features when optimized with Backtracking search optimization algorithm and classified with Modest Adaboost classifier, a classification accuracy of 98.77% is obtained. The individual results show that for schizophrenia case, when Isomap features are optimized with Flower Pollination optimization algorithm and classified with Real Adaboost classifier, a classification accuracy of 98.77% is obtained.
In this study, abnormalities in medical images are analysed using three classifiers, and the results are compared. Breast cancer remains a major public health problem among women worldwide. Recently, many algorithms have evolved for the investigation of breast cancer diagnosis through medical imaging. A computer‐aided microcalcification detection method is proposed to categorise the nature of breast cancer as either benign or malignant from input mammogram images. The standard mammogram image corpus, the Mammogram Image Analysis Society database is utilised, and feature extraction is performed using five different wavelet families at level 4 and level 6 decomposition. The work is accomplished through firefly algorithm (FA), extreme learning machine (ELM) and least‐square‐based non‐linear regression (LSNLR) classifiers. The performance of the classifiers is compared by benchmark metrics, such as total error rate, specificity, sensitivity, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, precision, F1 score and the Matthews correlation coefficient. As validation of the classifier results, a kappa analysis is included to determine the agreement among classifiers. The LSNLR classifier attains a 3% to 7% improvement in average accuracy compared with the average classification accuracy of the FA (86.75%) and ELM (90.836%) classifiers.
One of the serious mental disorders where people interpret reality in an abnormal state is schizophrenia. A combination of extremely disordered thinking, delusion, and hallucination is caused due to schizophrenia, and the daily functions of a person are severely disturbed because of this disorder. A wide range of problems are caused due to schizophrenia such as disturbed thinking and behaviour. In the field of human neuroscience, the analysis of brain activity is quite an important research area. For general cognitive activity analysis, electroencephalography (EEG) signals are widely used as a low-resolution diagnosis tool. The EEG signals are a great boon to understand the abnormality of the brain disorders, especially schizophrenia. In this work, schizophrenia EEG signal classification is performed wherein, initially, features such as Detrend Fluctuation Analysis (DFA), Hurst Exponent, Recurrence Quantification Analysis (RQA), Sample Entropy, Fractal Dimension (FD), Kolmogorov Complexity, Hjorth exponent, Lempel Ziv Complexity (LZC), and Largest Lyapunov Exponent (LLE) are extracted initially. The extracted features are, then, optimized for selecting the best features through four types of optimization algorithms here such as Artificial Flora (AF) optimization, Glowworm Search (GS) optimization, Black Hole (BH) optimization, and Monkey Search (MS) optimization, and finally, it is classified through certain classifiers. The best results show that, for normal cases, a classification accuracy of 87.54% is obtained when BH optimization is utilized with Support Vector Machine-Radial Basis Function (SVM-RBF) kernel, and for schizophrenia cases, a classification accuracy of 92.17% is obtained when BH optimization is utilized with SVM-RBF kernel.
In this article, we examine the use of several segmentation algorithms for medical image classification. This work detects the cancer region from magnetic resonance (MR) images in earlier stage. This is accomplished in three stages. In first stage, four kinds of region‐based segmentation techniques are used such as K‐means clustering algorithm, expectation–maximization algorithm, partial swarm optimization algorithm, and fuzzy c‐means algorithm. In second stage, 18 texture features are extracting using gray level co‐occurrence matrix (GLCM). In stage three, classification is based on multi‐class support vector machine (SVM) classifier. Finally, the performance analysis of SVM classifier is analyzed using the four types of segmentation algorithm for a group of 200 patients (32—Glioma, 32—Meningioma, 44—Metastasis, 8—Astrocytoma, 72—Normal). The experimental results indicate that EM is an efficient segmentation method with 100% accuracy. In SVM, quadratic and RBF (σ = 0.5) kernel methods provide the highest classification accuracy compared to all other SVM kernel methods. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The basic function of the brain is severely affected by alcoholism. For the easy depiction and assessment of the mental condition of a human brain, Electroencephalography (EEG) signals are highly useful as it can record and measure the electrical activities of the brain much to the satisfaction of doctors and researchers. Utilizing the standard conventional techniques is quite hectic to derive the useful information as these signals are highly non-linear and non-stationary in nature. While recording the EEG signals, the activities of the neurons are recorded from various scalp regions which has varied characteristics and has a very low magnitude. Therefore, human interpretation of such signals is very difficult and consumes a lot of time. Hence, with the advent of Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) Techniques, identifying the normal versus alcoholic EEG signals has been of great utility in the medical field. In this work, we perform the initial clustering of the alcoholic EEG signals by means of using Correlation Dimension (CD) for easy feature extraction and then the suitable features are selected in it by means of employing various distance metrics like correlation distance, city block distance, cosine distance and chebyshev distance. Proceeding in such a methodology aids and assures that a good discrimination could be achieved between normal and alcoholic EEG signals using non-linear features. Finally, classification is then carried out with the suitable classifiers chosen such as Adaboost.RT classifier, the proposed Modified Adaboost.RT classifier by means of introducing Ridge and Lasso based soft thresholding technique, Random Forest with bootstrap resampling technique, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) such as Radial Basis Functions (RBF) and Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP), Support Vector Machine (SVM) with Linear, Polynomial and RBF Kernel, Naïve Bayesian Classifier (NBC), K-means classifier, and K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) Classifier and the results are analyzed. Results report a comparatively high classification accuracy of about 98.99% when correlation distance metrics are utilized with CD and the proposed Modified Adaboost.RT classifier using Ridge based soft thresholding technique.
