Abstract
We present a new method for full-field mammogram analysis. A mammogram is analyzed region by region and is classified as normal or abnormal. We present methods for extracting features that can be used to distinguish normal and abnormal regions of a mammogram. We describe our classifier technique that uses a unique reclassification method to boost the classification performance. We have tested this technique on a set of ground-truth full-field mammograms.
