Area of Science:

Medical Image Analysis
Computational Pathology

Background:

Clinical diagnosis systems rely on image features, but abstract features like wavelet transforms present interpretation challenges.
The semantic gap hinders the understanding of computed features in relation to clinical relevance.

Purpose of the Study:

To propose a method for feature analysis and interpretation by simultaneously visualizing feature and image domains.
To address the semantic gap in medical image analysis for histopathological images.

Main Methods:

Utilized color transforms and Discrete Wavelet Transform for feature extraction from histopathological images of meningiomas WHO grade I.
Employed unsupervised machine learning methods for visualizing and exploring the wavelet-based feature space.
