Improvised kernel graph cuts and continuous max-flow optimization scheme-for enhanced segmentation in Cervical Cancer Detection
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2019, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
The cervical cancer refers to the uncontrolled growth of cells in the internal lining of the cervix part that connects the uterus region to the vaginal part of the women. This cervical cancer needs to be screened for identifying pre-cancers before they get transformed into invasive cancer. The Pap Smear Test is considered as the potential screening test essential for detecting pre-cancerous cells in the cervix, such that the uncontrolled growth of inter-uterine wall cells can be prevented. The majority of the segmentation schemes proposed in the literature for detecting cervical cancer failed in predominant localization of cytoplasm and nucleus boundaries from the pap smear extracted during the screening process. In this paper, an Improvised Kernel Graph Cuts and Continuous Max-Flow Optimization (IKGC-CMFO) Scheme is proposed for enhanced segmentation during the process of significant Cervical Cancer Detection. This proposed IKGC-CMFO Scheme wide opens the options of investigating the overlapping and hazy boundaries of the pap smear cells in order to ensure optimal level of cervical cancer detection. This proposed IKGC-CMFO Scheme utilized a kernel induced space in the generation of graph cut with an incorporated max-flow algorithm achieved through continuous multiplier. The simulation experiments and results of the proposed IKGC-CMFO confirmed a superior classification accuracy rate of 32% compared to the baseline Graph cut-based segmentation approaches considered for investigation.
