Abstract

This paper aims to review the previously developed Computer-aided detection (CAD) systems for mammogram screening because increasing death rate in women due to breast cancer is a global medical issue and it can be controlled only by early detection with regular screening. Till now mammography is the widely used breast imaging modality. CAD systems have been adopted by the radiologists to increase the accuracy of the breast cancer diagnosis by avoiding human errors and experience related issues. This study reveals that in spite of the higher accuracy obtained by the earlier proposed CAD systems for breast cancer diagnosis, they are not fully automated. Moreover, the false-positive mammogram screening cases are high in number and over-diagnosis of breast cancer exposes a patient towards harmful overtreatment for which a huge amount of money is being wasted. In addition, it is also reported that the mammogram screening result with and without CAD systems does not have noticeable difference, whereas the undetected cancer cases by CAD system are increasing. Thus, future research is required to improve the performance of CAD system for mammogram screening and make it completely automated.

Abstract

Biometric feature authentication technology had been developed and implemented for the security access system. However, the known biometric features such as fingerprint, face and iris pattern failed to provide ideal security. Dorsal hand vein is the features beneath the skin which makes it not easily be duplicated and forged. It was expected to be used in biometric authentication technology to achieve an ideal accuracy with the uniqueness of its characteristics. In this paper, 240 images of 80 users were obtained from Bosphorus Hand Vein Database. The images were then pre-processed by cropping ROI, mean filtering, CLAHE enhancing and histogram equalizing. The ROI was then segmented by implementing binarization. The local binary pattern (LBP) features were then extracted from the segmented ROI. The extracted features were sent to an artificial neural network (ANN) for the classification of the images. The training result shows that the LBP features and ANN can recognize the dorsal hand vein pattern quite well with 99.86% accuracy. The ANN was then utilized in the MATLAB GUI program for testing 100 images (80 trained images of 80 users and 20 untrained images of 20 users) from the Bosphorus Hand Vein Database. The results revealed 100% accuracy in their matching result.
