Enhancement of tuberculosis detection using ensemble classifier with Quadtree method: A preliminary study

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by a bacillus called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It can lead to death in untreated and inappropriately treated patients. An early diagnosis of the disease not only improves treatment success but also reduces death rates. Lung region is the most affected p...

description Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by a bacillus called Mycobacterium tuberculosis. It can lead to death in untreated and inappropriately treated patients. An early diagnosis of the disease not only improves treatment success but also reduces death rates. Lung region is the most affected part of Tuberculosis and the process of medical image classification is still carried out manually using the knowledge of the physician or radiologist, which leads to inaccurate and slow process of TB identification. Therefore, this study proposed to enhance tuberculosis detection using a different combination of machine learning and image processing methods on the image dataset.
