Prostate cancer is the second most prevalent type of cancer in the male population worldwide. Prostate imaging tests have adopted for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. It is known that early detection increases the chances of an effective treatment, improving the prognosis of the disease. This paper proposes an automatic methodology for prostate lesions detection. It consists of the following steps: Extracting candidates for lesions with Wolff algorithm; feature extraction using the Ising model measures and finally the uses support vector machine in the classification of a lesion or healthy tissue. The methodology was validated using a set of 28 exams containing the lesion markings and obtained a sensitivity of 95.92%, specificity of 93.89% and accuracy of 94.16%. These are promising since they were more significant than other methods compared.

Sentiment analysis is one of the popular techniques gaining attention in recent times. Nowadays, people gain information on reviews of users regarding public transportation, movies, hotel reservation, etc., by utilizing the resources available, as they meet their needs. Hence, sentiment classification is an essential process employed to determine the positive and negative responses. This paper presents an approach for sentiment classification of train reviews using MapReduce model with the proposed Kernel Optimized-Support Vector Machine (KO-SVM) classifier. The MapReduce framework handles big data using a mapper, which performs feature extraction and reducer that classifies the review based on KO-SVM classification. The feature extraction process utilizes features that are classification-specific and SentiWordNet-based. KO-SVM adopts SVM for the classification, where the exponential kernel is replaced by an optimized kernel, finding the weights using a novel optimizer, Self-adaptive Lion Algorithm (SLA). In a comparative analysis, the performance of KO-SVM classifier is compared with SentiWordNet, NB, NN, and LSVM, using the evaluation metrics, specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy, with train review and movie review database. The proposed KO-SVM classifier could attain maximum sensitivity of 93.46% and 91.249% specificity of 74.485% and 70.018%; and accuracy of 84.341% and 79.611% respectively, for train review and movie review databases.

An enhanced classification system for classification of MR images using association of kernels with support vector machine is developed and presented in this paper along with the design and development of content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system. Content of image retrieval is the process of finding relevant image from large collection of image database using visual queries. Medical images have led to growth in large image collection. Oriented Rician Noise Reduction Anisotropic Diffusion filter is used for image denoising. A modified hybrid Otsu algorithm termed is used for image segmentation. The texture features are extracted using GLCM method. Genetic algorithm with Joint entropy is adopted for feature selection. The classification is done by support vector machine along with various kernels and the performance is validated. A classification accuracy of 98.83% is obtained using SVM with GRBF kernel. Various features have been extracted and these features are used to classify MR images into five different categories. Performance of the MC-SVM classifier is compared with different kernel functions. From the analysis and performance measures like classification accuracy, it is inferred that the brain and spinal cord MRI classification is best done using MC- SVM with Gaussian RBF kernel function than linear and polynomial kernel functions. The proposed system can provide best classification performance with high accuracy and low error rate.

A higher level of image processing usually contains some kind of classification or recognition. Digit classification is an important subfield in handwritten recognition. Handwritten digits are characterized by large variations so template matching, in general, is inefficient and low in accuracy. In this paper, we propose the classification of the digit of the year of a relic inscription in the Kingdom of Majapahit using Support Vector Machine (SVM). This method is able to cope with very large feature dimensions and without reducing existing features extraction. While the method used for feature extraction using the Gray-Level Co-Occurrence Matrix (GLCM), special for texture analysis. This experiment is divided into 10 classification class, namely: class 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and class 0. Each class is tested with 10 data so that the whole data testing are 100 data number year. The use of GLCM and SVM methods have obtained an average of classification results about 77 %.
