Image Classification Approach Feature Models Feature Extraction Images Organized by Class Model Features Image Classifier Feature Extraction Unknown Image
Image Features • Spectral features (color/tone). • Histogram (3D, color, binary, gray). • Distribution, size, width, mean, stdev. • Do not vary with translation and rotation. • Textural features (spatial distribution). • Gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM). • Energy, entropy, contrast, correlation. • Independent of color distribution.

Advanced Features - Context • Image segmentation. • Regions of interest (contextual features). • Threshold algorithms - Maximum Entropy, Otsu Threshold, Watershed, etc. • Segmentation features of actin fibers. • Density - Area, Mean Gray Level. • Distribution - Centroid, Center of Mass. • Orientation - Angle, Elliptical Fit (wrt cell). • Order - Angle, Elliptical Fit (wrt fibers).
Advanced Features - Clustering • K-means clustering of image features. • Partitions images into clusters based on the nearest mean, based on a first-order Markov property. • Based on the assumption that images with similar clinical features are more likely to be found in the same cluster.
Model Development • Distance metrics • Manhattan distance, Jeffrey divergence. • Classification threshold. • Support vector machines • Machine learning methods. • An N-dimensional hyperplane optimally separates images into categories. • This mapping is performed by a set of mathematical functions, known as kernels.
Initial Results - Feature Analysis • Initial image classification experiment. • Evaluated 15 spectral and textural features. • Total of 11 images in 4 groups. • Focal adhesions images, actin stained. • 1hdry, 1hwet, 24hdry, 24hwet. • Analysis. • Leave-one-out technique over all 11 images. • Manhattan distance. • Threshold of 5% (0.3% for histograms).
Initial Results - Feature Analysis • Promising features. • Gray-scale distribution • Medium • Mode • Homogeneity • Energy • Entropy • Inverse difference moment Sensitivity = 76.8% Specificity = 89.6% Accuracy = 86.4%
Initial Results - Segmentation • Second image classification experiment. • Evaluating 4 new image features. • Density, Distribution, Orientation, Order • Experimenting with threshold algorithms to optimize image segmentation. • Total of 11 images in 4 groups. • Focal adhesions images, actin stained. • 1hdry, 1hwet, 24hdry, 24hwet.
Initial Results - Segmentation • Orientation feature using elliptical fit. • Image moment-preserving threshold. • Elliptical fit. • Cell angle = 132° • Average (weighted) actin fiber angle = 129°.
Initial Results - Analysis Platform • To automate and optimize image processing algorithms.
Future Efforts • Use feature analysis to develop a support vector machine image classifier. • Continue image segmentation work. • Correlate actin data to other images. • Incorporate successful algorithms in the Analysis Platform. • Identifyontologies to map specific classes to biological characteristics.
