MachineLearning has been potentially contributing towards smart diagnosis in the medical domain for more than a decade with a target towards achieving higher accuracy in detection and classification. However, from the perspective of medical image processing, the contribution of machine learning towards segmentation is not been much to find in recent times. The proposed study considers a use case of Tuberculosis detection and classification from chest x-rays where a unique machine learning approach of Convolution Neural Network is adopted for segmentation of lung images from CXR. A computational framework is developed that performs segmentation, feature extraction, detection, and classification. The proposed system's study outcome is analyzed with and without segmentation over existing machine learning models to exhibit 99.85% accuracy, which is the highest score to date in contrast to existing approaches found in the literature. The study outcome based on the comparative analysis exhibits the effectiveness of the proposed system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
