  • Image segmentation and classification of cytological cells based on multi-features clustering and chain splitting model

    The diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is very important. The main method of diagnosis is based on pathological analysis of microscopic image of Pap smear slide. The accurate segmentation and classification of images are two important phases of the analysis. In this paper, we proposed a new automatic segmentation and classification method for microscopic images of pancreas. For the segmentation phase, firstly multi-features Mean-shift clustering algorithm (MFMS) was applied to localize regions of nuclei. Then, chain splitting model (CSM) containing flexible mathematical morphology and curvature scale space corner detection method was applied to split overlapped cells for better accuracy and robustness. For classification phase, 4 shape-based features and 138 textural features based on color spaces of cell nuclei were extracted. In order to achieve optimal feature set and classify different cells, chain-like agent genetic algorithm (CAGA) combined with support vector machine (SVM) was proposed. The proposed method was tested on 15 cytology images containing 461 cell nuclei. Experimental results showed that the proposed method could automatically segment and classify different types of microscopic images of pancreatic cell and had effective segmentation and classification results. The mean accuracy of segmentation is 93.46%±7.24%. The classification performance of normal and malignant cells can achieve 96.55%±0.99% for accuracy, 96.10%±3.08% for sensitivity and 96.80%±1.48% for specificity.
