Title
An effective image retrieval system using machine learning and fuzzy c- means clustering approach
Abstract
Recently, Content-based medical image retrieval (CBMIR) systems enable fast diagnosis via the assessment of the visual information in medical application. Most of the state-of-the-art CBMIR systems facing few issues: computationally expensive due to the usage of high dimensional feature vectors and complex classifier/clustering approaches. The reasons behind this are, inability to properly handle the “semantic gap” and the high intra-class versus inter-class variability problem of the medical image database (like radiographic image database). This yields a crucial demand for developing computationally efficient and highly effective retrieval system. For this purpose, the present study proposed an efficient retrieval system which has a four-fold: First, pre-processing and Feature extraction of input image using canonical correlation analysis (CCA). By this approach extracted the feature in both pixel and feature domains and examined more rigorously. Second, applied Fuzzy C means clustering of pixel intensity values as features based on the singular value decomposition. Through this can grouping, the image based on the pixel intensity value. Third, deep convolutional neural network with SVM classifier which makes implementable and requires only a compact feature vector representation of the stored database image with their class levels during retrieval. Finally evaluated the performance based on the measure of Mean Average Precision, Correct rate (CR), Error rate (ER), Accuracy. The classification results and learned features are used for the purpose of retrieving the medical images in a database. The proposed retrieval system performs better than the traditional approach in terms of measuring average value of precision, recall, f-measure and accuracy 95.9%, 94.96%, 95.37% and 95.798% respectively. The suggested approach is best suited towards retrieving the medical images for various part of the body.
