Breast cancer diagnosis from histopathological images using textural features and CBIR

作者:

Highlights:

• This work proposes a method using texture features to diagnose breast cancer.

• The images are from a public database containing 400 images labeled by experts.

• Phylogenetic indexes are unprecedented form of representation of histopathological images.

• For images not labeled, we use CBIR to rank the image classes.

• The method achieved an accuracy of 95.0% in 4 classes which outperform the literature.
