Accurate analysis and classification of medical images are essential factors in clinical decision-making and patient care. A novel comparative approach for medical image classification is proposed in this study. This new approach involves several steps: deep feature extraction, which extracts the informative features from medical images; concatenation, which concatenates the extracted deep features to form a robust feature vector; dimensionality reduction with autoencoder, which reduces the dimensionality of the feature vector by transforming it into a different feature space with a lower dimension; and finally, these features obtained from all these steps were fed into multiple machine learning classifiers (SVM, …
