Abstract

A total of 128 features, including 126 co-occurrence matrix based texture features and two statistical measures, are employed for the classification of cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic liver A genetic algorithm is used for selecting the feature subsets that have the most discriminative power. A three-layer back-propagation neural network is used for the classification. Based on a training set of 15 cirrhotic cases and 30 non-cirrhotic cases, the best testing Az is 0.73 obtained by using six features.
