Dimensionality Reduction in Deep Learning for Chest X-Ray Analysis of Lung Cancer
Efficiency of some dimensionality reduction techniques, like lung
segmentation, bone shadow exclusion, and t-distributed stochastic neighbor
embedding (t-SNE) for exclusion of outliers, is estimated for analysis of chest
X-ray (CXR) 2D images by deep learning approach to help radiologists identify
marks of lung cancer in CXR. Training and validation of the simple
convolutional neural network (CNN) was performed on the open JSRT dataset
(dataset #01), the JSRT after bone shadow exclusion - BSE-JSRT (dataset #02),
JSRT after lung segmentation (dataset #03), BSE-JSRT after lung segmentation
(dataset #04), and segmented BSE-JSRT after exclusion of outliers by t-SNE
method (dataset #05). The results demonstrate that the pre-processed dataset
obtained after lung segmentation, bone shadow exclusion, and filtering out the
outliers by t-SNE (dataset #05) demonstrates the highest training rate and best
accuracy in comparison to the other pre-processed datasets.Comment: 6 pages, 14 figure
