Abstract
Recent advances in the field of image processing have revealed that the level of noise in mammogram images highly affect the images quality and classification performance of the classifiers. Whilst, numerous data mining techniques have been developed to achieve high efficiency and effectiveness for computer aided diagnosis systems. However, fuzzy soft set theory has been merely experimented for medical images. Thus, this study proposed a classifier based on fuzzy soft set with embedding wavelet de-noising filters. Therefore, the proposed methodology involved five steps namely: MIAS dataset, wavelet de-noising filters hard and soft threshold, region of interest identification, feature extraction and classification. Therefore, the feasibility of fuzzy soft set for classification of mammograms images has been scrutinized. Experimental results show that proposed classifier FussCyier provides the classification performance with Daub3 (Level 1) with accuracy 75.64% (hard threshold), precision 46.11%, recall 84.67%, F-Micro 60%. Thus, the results provide an alternative technique to categorize mammogram images.
