Performance Evaluation of SVM a RBF Kernel for Medical Image Classification

Abstract

An approach for automatic classification of computed tomography (CT) medical images is presented in this paper. A vast amount of CT images are produced in modern hospitals due to advances of multi-slice Computed Tomography (CT) Scan which handles up to 64 slices per scan. So, an input image based automatic medical image retrieval system is now a necessity. In this paper, Coiflet wavelets are used to extract feature from the CT images. The extracted features are then classified using Support Vector Machine (SVM) with Radial Basis Function (RBF). The performance of SVM for varying parameters is investigated.
