Region based stellate features combined with variable selection using AdaBoost learning in mammographic computer-aided detection.

In this paper, a new method is developed for extracting so-called region-based stellate features to correctly differentiate spiculated malignant masses from normal tissues on mammograms. In the proposed method, a given region of interest (ROI) for feature extraction is divided into three individual...
