Pattern classification approaches for breast cancer identification via MRI: stateāofātheāart and vision for the future
Mining algorithms for Dynamic Contrast Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DCEMRI)
of breast tissue are discussed. The algorithms are based on recent advances in multidimensional
signal processing and aim to advance current stateāofātheāart computerāaided detection
and analysis of breast tumours when these are observed at various states of development. The topics
discussed include image feature extraction, information fusion using radiomics, multiāparametric
computerāaided classification and diagnosis using information fusion of tensorial datasets as well
as Clifford algebra based classification approaches and convolutional neural network deep learning
methodologies. The discussion also extends to semiāsupervised deep learning and selfāsupervised
strategies as well as generative adversarial networks and algorithms using generated
confrontational learning approaches. In order to address the problem of weakly labelled tumour
images, generative adversarial deep learning strategies are considered for the classification of
different tumour types. The proposed data fusion approaches provide a novel Artificial Intelligence
(AI) based framework for more robust image registration that can potentially advance the early
identification of heterogeneous tumour types, even when the associated imaged organs are
registered as separate entities embedded in more complex geometric spaces. Finally, the general
structure of a highādimensional medical imaging analysis platform that is based on multiātask
detection and learning is proposed as a way forward. The proposed algorithm makes use of novel
loss functions that form the building blocks for a generated confrontation learning methodology
that can be used for tensorial DCEāMRI. Since some of the approaches discussed are also based on
timeālapse imaging, conclusions on the rate of proliferation of the disease can be made possible. The
proposed framework can potentially reduce the costs associated with the interpretation of medical
images by providing automated, faster and more consistent diagnosis

Clustering Algorithms for Time Series Gene Expression in Microarray Data
Clustering techniques are important for gene expression data analysis. However, efficient computational algorithms for clustering time-series data are still lacking. This work documents two improvements on an existing profile-based greedy algorithm for short time-series data; the first one is implementation of a scaling method on the pre-processing of the raw data to handle some extreme cases; the second improvement is modifying the strategy to generate better clusters. Simulation data and real microarray data were used to evaluate these improvements; this approach could efficiently generate more accurate clusters. A new feature-based algorithm was also developed in which steady state value; overshoot, rise time, settling time and peak time are generated by the 2nd order control system for the clustering purpose. This feature-based approach is much faster and more accurate than the existing profile-based algorithm for long time-series data
