Abstract

A lung opacities classification in thin-section computed tomography(CT) images is expected for designing a computeraided diagnosis(CAD) system. In classifying lung opacities, the effectiveness of slice features has been shown. In this paper, in order further to improve the lung opacities classification performance, we have presented a local slice feature based method.
