Abstract

Tuberculosis is one of the hazardous infectious diseases that can be categorized by the evolution of tubercles in the tissues. This disease mainly affects the lungs and also the other parts of the body. The disease can be easily diagnosed by the radiologists. The main objective of this chapter is to get best solution selected by means of modified particle swarm optimization is regarded as optimal feature descriptor. Five stages are being used to detect tuberculosis disease. They are pre-processing an image, segmenting the lungs and extracting the feature, feature selection and classification. These stages that are used in medical image processing to identify the tuberculosis. In the feature extraction, the GLCM approach is used to extract the features and from the extracted feature sets the optimal features are selected by random forest. Finally, support vector machine classifier method is used for image classification. The experimentation is done, and intermediate results are obtained. The proposed system accuracy results are better than the existing method in classification.
