@article{(Open Science Index):https://publications.waset.org/pdf/16401, title = {A Serial Hierarchical Support Vector Machine and 2D Feature Sets Act for Brain DTI Segmentation}, author = {Mohammad Javadi}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {Serial hierarchical support vector machine (SHSVM) is proposed to discriminate three brain tissues which are white matter (WM), gray matter (GM), and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). SHSVM has novel classification approach by repeating the hierarchical classification on data set iteratively. It used Radial Basis Function (rbf) Kernel with different tuning to obtain accurate results. Also as the second approach, segmentation performed with DAGSVM method. In this article eight univariate features from the raw DTI data are extracted and all the possible 2D feature sets are examined within the segmentation process. SHSVM succeed to obtain DSI values higher than 0.95 accuracy for all the three tissues, which are higher than DAGSVM results. }, journal = {International Journal of Computer and Information Engineering}, volume = {7}, number = {7}, year = {2013}, pages = {970 - 973}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/16401}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/79}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 79, 2013}, }
