An Efficient Segmentation and Classification System in Medical Images Using Intuitionist Possibilistic Fuzzy C-Mean Clustering and Fuzzy SVM Algorithm

Abstract

The herpesvirus, polyomavirus, papillomavirus, and retrovirus families are associated with breast cancer. More effort is needed to assess the role of these viruses in the detection and diagnosis of breast cancer cases in women. The aim of this paper is to propose an efficient segmentation and classification system in the Mammography Image Analysis Society (MIAS) images of medical images. Segmentation became challenging for medical images because they are not illuminated in the correct way. The role of segmentation is essential in concern with detecting syndromes in human. This research work is on the segmentation of medical images based on intuitionistic possibilistic fuzzy c-mean (IPFCM) clustering. Intuitionist fuzzy c-mean (IFCM) and possibilistic fuzzy c-mean (PFCM) algorithms are hybridised to deal with problems of fuzzy c-mean. The introduced clustering methodology, in this article, retains the positive points of PFCM which helps to overcome the problem of the coincident clusters, thus the noise and less sensitivity to the outlier. The IPFCM improves the fundamentals of fuzzy c-mean by using intuitionist fuzzy sets. For the clustering of mammogram images for breast cancer detector of abnormal images, IPFCM technique has been applied. The proposed method has been compared with other available fuzzy clustering methods to prove the efficacy of the proposed approach. We compared support vector machine (SVM), decision tree (DT), rough set data analysis (RSDA) and Fuzzy-SVM classification algorithms for achieving an optimal classification result. The outcomes of the studies show that the proposed approach is highly effective with clustering and also with classification of breast cancer. The performance average segmentation accuracy for MIAS images with different noise level 5%, 7% and 9% of IPFCM is 91.25%, 87.50% and 85.30% accordingly. The average classification accuracy rates of the methods (Otsu, Fuzzy c-mean, IFCM, PFCM and IPFCM) for Fuzzy-SVM are 79.69%, 92.19%, 93.13%, 95.00%, and 98.85%, respectively.

Dynamic PET Image Reconstruction Incorporating Multiscale Superpixel Clusters

“…Then, FCM clustering [36], [37] is carried out to classify superpixels according to the mean image intensity of every superpixel region in the three composite images. The classification number T of FCM can be set to the number of main tissues; for example, T can be three for the human brain data because three main clusters (gray matter, white matter, and background) would be found in the reconstructed image.…”

Analytical Study of Hybrid Techniques for Image Encryption and Decryption

“…Bhowmick et al [ 24 ] worked on the security of the text encryption provided by Double Playfair Cipher by using 6 × 6 key matrices over the regular 5 × 5 key matrices. However, the algorithm failed due to data loss over certain characters, such as spaces and special symbols.…”

Effective Breast Cancer Recognition Based on Fine-Grained Feature Selection

“…The implicit complementary information hidden among different tasks can be fully used to improve recognition performance. For example, Chiranji et al [27] designed a multitask learning framework that consists of lesion area segmentation and breast cancer classification based on fuzzy C-means clustering and a fuzzy SVM. The two tasks complement each other to boost the final performance.…”
