Mammogram classification using sparse-ROI: A novel representation to arbitrary shaped masses

作者:

Highlights:

• Sparse matrix is used to represent the arbitrary shaped masses, called Sparse-ROI.

• Sparse-ROI eliminates the risk of a common optimum sized window selection.

• Two algorithms were developed to describe Sparse-ROI using GLCM and GLAM.

• A drastic reduction in computational time by 99.93% in GLCM is observed on MIAS.

• 97.2% of classification accuracy is observed.
