Popis: | This research introduces a new approach using the Riesz mixture model for medical image segmentation, specifically for diagnosing and treating brain tumors. We developed a novel technique for pixel classification based on the Riesz distribution, which is generated using an extended Bartlett decomposition. Our work is pioneering, as there are no existing studies addressing this issue in the literature. We aim to demonstrate the effectiveness of this distribution for brain image segmentation. We used the Expectation-Maximization algorithm to estimate the mixture parameters. To validate our segmentation algorithm, we conducted a comparative study with a recent method based on the Wishart distribution using Matlab software. Experiments with the Riesz mixture model showed that our method produces more intuitive results with a recognition rate of 94.52%. These results confirm the reliability of our method in detecting tumors using both synthetic and real brain images. |
