Computational Techniques In Medical Image Analysis Application For White Blood Cells Classification., Omar Dekhil

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

White blood cells play important rule in the human body immunity and any change in their count may cause serious diseases. In this study, a system is introduced for white blood cells localization and classification. The dataset used in this study is formed by two components, the first is the annotation dataset that will be used in the localization (364 images), and the second is labeled classes that will be used in the classification (12,444 images). For the localization, two approaches will be discussed, a classical approach and a deep learning based approach. For the classification, 5 different deep learning …

Building A Classification Model Using Affinity Propagation, Christopher R. Klecker

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Regular classification of data includes a training set and test set. For example for Naïve Bayes, Artificial Neural Networks, and Support Vector Machines, each classifier employs the whole training set to train itself. This thesis will explore the possibility of using a condensed form of the training set in order to get a comparable classification accuracy. The technique explored in this thesis will use a clustering algorithm to explore with data records can be labeled as exemplar, or a quality of multiple records. For example, is it possible to compress say 50 records into one single record? Can a single …

Nowadays, algorithmic systems for making decisions are widely used to facilitate decisions in a variety of fields such as medicine, banking, applying for universities or network security. However, many machine learning algorithms are well-known for their complex mathematical internal workings which turn them into black boxes and makes their decision-making process usually difficult to understand even for experts. In this thesis, we try to develop a methodology to explain why a certain exceptional machine learned decision was made incorrectly by using the interpretability of the decision tree classifier. Our approach can provide insights about potential flaws in feature definition or …
