Popis: In this paper a robust regions-of-suspicion (ROS) diagnosis system on mammograms, recognizing all types of abnormalities is presented and evaluated. A new type of descriptors, based on Shapelet decomposition, derive the source images that generate the observed ROS in mammograms. The Shapelet decomposition coefficients can be used efficiently to detect ROS areas using Support-Vector-Machines (SVMs) with radial basis function kernels. Extensive experiments using the Mammographic Image Analysis Society (MIAS) database have shown high recognition accuracy above 86% for all kinds of breast abnormalities that exceeds the performance of similar decomposition methods based on Zernike moments presented in the literature by more than 8%.
