1. PHD RESEARCH REVIEW MEETING
Supervisor: Dr.Amit Kumar Goel
SCSE Department
Galgotias University
2. INTRODUCTION
Images are primary tool of diagnosis in healthcare
sector
Machine Learning can play prominent role in
analysis of medical images
Using computer to analyze medical data is known
as Computer Aided Diagnosis
Machine learning algorithm can help to classify and
predict disease
5. MACHINE LEARNING ALGORITHM
In supervised learning we divide data into training
data and testing data
Training data is used to identify the features which
are used to classify test data
In unsupervised learning machine learns the
features on its own
In reinforcement learning algorithm tries to optimize
cost function
6. MACHINE LEARNING MODEL
Convolutional neural network
Decision Tree
Support Vector machine
Regression Analysis
AutoEncoder
Linear and logistic classifier
7. APPLICATION IN MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS
The most popular task in healthcare sector is
segmentation ,classification and registration
CNN is most popular tool to classify the image into
malignant and benign
Auto Encoder has been used to solve classification
problem
Reinforcement learning algorithm has been used
along with CNN to classify lung cancer image
classification
8. APPLICATION IN MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS
Decision tree has been used to classify CT images
, breast cancer images etc.
Support vector machines to classify breast tissue
as malignant
Recurrent neural network has been used to analyze
EHG signals
9. SOFTWARE
Caffe:C++ and python deep learning library
maintained UCBerkley
Tensor Flow :Google’s deep learning library
Keras:Python based deep learning library
Scikit-learn:Python based machine learning library
PyTorch:Python based machine learning library

12. CONCLUSION
Medical Diagnosis is an emerging field and there
are lot of scopes for improvisation
100% accuracy in classification has not been
achieved in almost all cases
Scalability is another issues that has to be verified
Computation time of ML algorithms are very high
13. CONCLUSION
Recurrent neural network has not been much used
in the classification of medical images
Recurrent neural network is more efficient in
handling dependent data
Medical images can be model as sequence of
images
Based on image history next stage of disease can
be predicted
