Περιγραφή: Early detection of pulmonary lung nodules plays a significant role in the diagnosis of lung cancer. Radiologists use Computed Tomography (CT) and Chest Radiographs (CRs) to detect such nodules. In this research, we propose various pattern recognition algorithms to enhance the classification performance of the Computer Aided Detection (CAD) system for lung nodule detection in both modalities. We propose a novel optimized method of feature selection for clustering that would aid the performance of the classifier. We make use of an independent CR database for training purposes. Testing is implemented on a publicly available database created by the Standard Digital Image Database Project Team of the Scientific Committee of the Japanese Society of Radiological Technology (JRST). The JRST database comprises 154 CRs containing one radiologist confirmed nodule in each. We make use of 107 CT scans from publicly available dataset created by Lung Image Database Consortium (LIDC) for this study. We compare the performance of the cluster-classifier architecture to a single aggregate classifier architecture. Overall, with a specificity of 3 false positives per case on an average, we show a classifier performance boost of 7.7% for CRs and 5.0% for CT scans when compared to single aggregate classifier architecture. Furthermore, we study the performance of a CAD system in CT scans as a function of slice thickness. We believe this study has implication for how CT is acquired, processed and stored. We make use of CT cases acquired at a thickness of 1.25mm from the publicly available Lung Nodule Analysis 2016 (LUNA16) dataset for this research. We study the CAD performance at a native thickness of 1.25mm and various other down-sampled stages. Our study indicates that CAD performance at 2.5mm is comparable to 1.25mm and is much better than at higher thicknesses. In addition, we propose and compare three different training methodologies for utilizing non-homogenous thickness training (i.e., composed of cases with different slice ...
