Radiologists failed to detect evident cancerous signs in approximately 20% of false negative mammograms. False negatives have been identified as the inability of the radiologist to detect the abnormalities due to several reasons such as poor image quality, image noise, or eye fatigue. This paper presents a framework for a computer aided detection system that integrates Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Fisher Linear Discriminant (FLD), and Nearest Neighbor Classifier (KNN) algorithms for the detection of abnormalities in mammograms. Using normal and abnormal mammograms from the MIAS database, the integrated algorithm achieved 93.06% classification accuracy. Also in this paper, we present an analysis of the integrated algorithm’s parameters and suggest selection criteria.展开更多

This paper shows how Layered Range Trees (LRT) could be utilized for efficient nearest neighbor classification. The presented algorithm is robust and finds the nearest neighbor in a logarithmic order. The proposed algorithm reports the nearest neighbor in , where k is a very small constant when compared with the dataset size n and d is the number of dimensions. Experimental results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.展开更多

A major problem in MFA is how to select appropriate parameters, k1 and k2, to construct the respective intrinsic and penalty graphs. In this paper, we propose a novel method called nearest-neighbor （NN） classifier motivated marginal discriminant projections （NN-MDP）. Motivated by the NN classifier, NN-MDP seeks a few projection vectors to prevent data samples from being wrongly categorized. Like MFA, NN-MDP can characterize the compactness and separability of samples simultaneously. Moreover, in contrast to MFA, NN-MDP can actively construct the intrinsic graph and penalty graph without unknown parameters. Experimental results on the 0RL, Yale, and FERET face databases show that NN-MDP not only avoids the intractability, and high expense of neighborhood parameter selection, but is also more applicable to face recognition with NN classifier than other methods.展开更多

Nearest neighbor (NN) classifier is the most traditional and most common nonparameter statistical pattern classifier. However, so far there is no explicate theoretical analysis of the connection between nearest distance and confidence value. An analytical insight into different approximations is presented and one formula is pointed out that it is optimal in the sense of mathematical expectation.
