Abstract

Cervical cancer is second topmost cancers among women but also, it was a curable one. Regular smear test can discover the sign of precancerous cell and treated the patient according to the result. However sometimes the detection errors can be occurred by smear thickness, cell overlapping or by un-wanted particles in the smear and cytotechnologists faulty diagnosis. Therefore the reason automatic cancer detection was developed. This was help to increase cancer cell mindfulness, diagnosis accuracy with low cost. This detection process consists of some techniques of the image preprocessing that is segmentation and effective texture feature extraction with SVM classification. Then the Final Classification Results of this proposed technique was compared to the previous classification techniques of KNN and ANN and the result would be very useful to cytotechnologists for their further analysis.

Abstract

The majority of the women of the world were affected by the disease of cervical cancer. As a result of this disease, their death rate was increase as hasty level. Hence so many number of research people was focused this notion as their research interest and also they have done so many number of solutions for finding this cancer by using some image processing technique and achieved a good results only in advanced and high cost techniques of LBC, biopsy or Colposcopy test Images. Therefore the reason, the authors have chosen this problem and also did not only to find whether the patient is affected by a cancer or not. In addition to the patient was affected by this cancer means and also to identify which severity stage of this disease the patient could be live. Then this work has done in based on the images of low cost pap smear screening test by using various image processing techniques with the help of Computerized Image Processing Software Interactive Data Language (IDL-Image Processing Language). Thus the final reports would be very useful to the pathologists for further analysis.
