Abstract

Support vector machines is a powerful learning algorithm and attempt to separate belonging to two given sets in N-dimensional real space by a nonlinear surface, often only implicitly dened by a kernel function. We described breast tissue images analyses using texture features from Haar wavelet transformed images to classify breast lesion of ductal organ Benign, DCIS and CA. The approach for creating a classifier is composed of 2 steps: feature extraction and classification. Therefore, in the feature extraction step, we extracted texture features from wavelet transformed images with $10{\times}$ magnification. In the classification step, we created four classifiers from each image of extracted features using SVM(Support Vector Machines). In this study, we conclude that the best classifier in histological sections of breast tissue in the texture features from second-level wavelet transformed images used in Polynomial function.
