    We describe our experiments for the Image CLEF medical retrieval task. Our efforts were focused on the initial visual search. A content-based approach was followed. We used texture, localisation and colour features that have been proven by previous experiments. The images in the collection had specific characteristics. Medical images have a formulaic composition for each modality and anatomic region. We were able to choose features that would perform well in this domain. Tiling a Gabor texture feature to add localisation information proved to be particularly effective. The distances from each feature were combined with equal weighting. This smoothed the performance across the queries. The retrieval results showed that this simple approach was successful, with our system coming third in the automatic retrieval task

    Comparative Study Of Computacional Models Generated From Representations Of Colonoscopic Images: Normal Mucosal Tissues Vs Mucosal Tissues Of Colic Polyp [estudo Comparativo De Modelos Computacionais Gerados Sobre Representações De Imagens De Coloscopia: Tecido De Mucosa Normal Vs Tecido De Mucosa De Pólipo Cólico]

    Purpose: to evaluate the predictive quality of computational models to differentiate colic tissues, based on Co-occorrurence Matrices (MC) representation of Coloscopic Images (IC). Materials and Methods: Image analysis and artificial intelligence methods were employed to construct computational models. Sixty seven IC images, containing polyp, were considered in this work, from which a part containing a polypus and another without it were collected given origin to 134 images. For each one of these, different MC were constructed considering five distance parameters (D = 1 to 5) and the extraction of 11 texture characteristics. With this representation, five computational models were generated based on decision trees. These models were evaluated using two techniques: (a) cross-validation and (b) contingency tables. Results: for the (a) analysis, the model with D = 3 presented the smaller average error (22.25% ± 11.85%). For the (b) analysis, models with D = 1 and 3 presented the best precision values. Conclusion: parameters D = 1 and 3 presented models with the best predictive qualities. Results showed that the constructed models were promising to be applied within decision making computational systems.2912329Karkanis, S., Galoussi, K., Maroulis, D., Classification of Endoscopic Images Based on Texture Spectrum.
