Tissues image retrieval system based on co-occuerrence, run length and roughness features

摘要

The research presented in this paper was aimed to improve the retrieval performance of an images retrieval system in medical applications based on texture features. In general, the work consists of two phases: (1) enrollment phase, which consist of feature extraction based on Co-occurrence matrix and run length matrix features combined with developed method to measure the roughness, (2) retrieving phase, which use the artificial neural network and similarity measurement. The conducted tests were carried on 600 medical images from four types of tissues (i.e., blood cells, breast tissues, GI tissues, liver tissues) and give very high precision and recall rates (100,98).
