Automatic detection of abnormal mammograms in mammographic images

作者:

Highlights:

• We develop a computer aided system to detect abnormal mammograms.

• We extract only 5 features of intensity and gradient for mass detection.

• Principal component analysis is applied to determine the feature weights.

• The abnormality detection classifier by feature weight adjustments is proposed.

• We evaluate our method upon 2 different datasets.
