Circular RNAs (CircRNAs) are a type of non-coding RNAs (NcRNAs) with a closed annular structure. Until next-generation sequencing (NGS) is developed, the misunderstanding of circRNAs ‘splicing error’ has changed, and the mysterious veil of circRNAs has been revealed. NGS provides an approach to investigate circRNAs. Many scholars point out that circRNAs may play an important role in many diseases,...
Correct mass diagnosis in mammogram can reduce the unnecessary biopsy without increasing false negatives. In this paper, we investigated the usage of random forest classifier for the classification of masses with geometry and texture features. Before extracting features, the mass regions need to be extracted. Based on the initial contour guided by radiologist, level set segmentation is used to deform...
In this paper, an automatically method for mass detection was introduced, which combines multiple layers concentric (MLC) and narrow band region-based active contour (NBAC) technique. We used an improved level set method to segment the mass for contour refinement, after the boundary of a mass is found, texture features from Gray Level Cooccurrence Matrix (GLCM) are extracted from the surrounding area...
In this paper, we investigate the classification of masses with texture features. We propose an improved level set method to find the boundary of a mass, based on the initial contour provided by radiologists. After the boundary of a mass is found, texture features from Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) are extracted from the surrounding area of the boundary of the mass. The extracted texture...
Image enhancement technologies have been widely used for improving the quality of the images for screening mammograms. In this paper, we will focus on the enhancement of breast calcifications, which are the deposits of calcium that can be seen on a mammogram of the breast. In the proposed method, the original image and the normalized gradient image of the original image are first decomposed into a...
Mammography is currently regarded as one of the best ways to detect breast cancer in the early stage. However, due to the limitation in imaging condition and the subtleness of the difference between normal and abnormal features, it is generally difficult to interpret the mammograms. Thus, image enhancement techniques have been widely used in screening mammograms. In this paper, a multiscale contrast...
