This work investigates the capability of supervised classification methods in detecting both major tissues and subcortical structures using multispectral brain magnetic resonance images. First, by means of a realistic digital brain phantom, we investigated the classification performance of various Discriminant Analysis methods, K-Nearest Neighbor and Support Vector Machine. Then, using phantom and real data, we quantitatively assessed the benefits of integrating anatomical information in the classification, in the form of voxels coordinates as additional features to the intensities or tissue probabilistic atlases as priors. In addition we tested the effect of spatial correlations between neighboring voxels and image denoising. For each brain tissue we measured the classification performance in terms of global agreement percentage, false positive and false negative rates and kappa coefficient. The effectiveness of integrating spatial information or a tissue probabilistic atlas has been demonstrated for the aim of accurately classifying brain magnetic resonance images. |
