After decomposing the mammogram images in curvelet basis, a special set of the biggest coefficients is extracted as feature vector. The Euclidean distance is then used to construct a supervised classifier. The experimental results gave a 98.59 classification accuracy rate, which indicate that curvelet transformation is a promising tool for analysis and classification of digital mammograms. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd. date: 2010 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-77952237386&doi=10.1016%2fj.compmedimag.2009.11.002&partnerID=40&md5=a52910c5505a38495d14c0838f0c5aa6 id_number: 10.1016/j.compmedimag.2009.11.002 full_text_status: none publication: Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics volume: 34 number: 4 pagerange: 269-276 refereed: TRUE issn: 08956111 citation: Eltoukhy, M.M. and Faye, I. and Samir, B.B.
