Integration of swarm intelligence and artificial neural network for medical image recognition

Abstract EN

Neural network technology plays an important role in the development of new medical diagnostic assistance or what is known as “computer aided” that based on image recognition.

Thispaper study the method used integration of back propagation neural network and Particle Swarm Optimizing (PSO) in parts of recognition the XRay of lungs for two disease cases (cancer and TB) along with the normal case.

The experiments show that the improvement of algorithms for recognition side has achieved a good result reached to 88.398 % for input image size 1024 pixel and 500 population size.

The efficiency and recognition testes for training method was performed and reported in this paper.
