Title
Label Propagation Algorithm For The Slices Detection Of A Ground-Glass Opacity Nodule
Abstract
A radiologist must read hundreds of slices to recognize a malignant or benign lung tumor in computed tomography (CT) volume data. To reduce the burden of the radiologist, some proposals have been applied with the ground-glass opacity (GGO) nodules. However, the GGO nodules need be detected and labeled by a radiologist manually. Some slices with the GGO nodule can be missed because there are many slices in several volume data. Although some papers have proposed a semi-supervised learning method to find the slices with GGO nodules, the was no discussion on the impact of parameters in the proposed semi-supervised learning. This article also explains and analyzes the label propagation algorithm which is one of the semi-supervised learning methods to detect the slices including the GGO nodules based on the parameters. Experimental results show that the proposal can detect the slices including the GGO nodules effectively.
