A lung cancer patient’s survival probability in late stages is very low. However, if it can be detected early, the patient survival rate can be improved. Diagnosing lung cancer early is a complicated task due to having the visual similarity of lungs nodules with trachea, vessels, and other surrounding tissues that leads toward misclassifcation of lung nodules. Terefore, correct identifcation and classifcation of nodules is required. Previous studies have used noisy features, which makes results comprising. A predictive model has been proposed to accurately detect and classify the lung nodules to address this problem. In the proposed framework, atfrst, the semantic segmentation was performed to identify the nodules in images in the Lungs image database consortium (LIDC) dataset. Optimal features for classifcation include histogram oriented gradients (HOGs), local binary patterns (LBPs), and geometric features are extracted after segmentation of nodules. Te results shown that support vector machines performed better in identifying the nodules than other classifers, achieving the highest accuracy of 97.8% with sensitivity of 100%, specifcity of 93%, and false positive rate of 6.7% .  \n1. Introduction  \nCancer professes a great threat worldwide to human health. Among all other types of cancers, lung cancer has the highest death rate. According to the world health report, about 8.2 million deaths occur per year due to cancer and 1.69 million of which are due to lung cancer [1]. Te survival rate in lung cancer is very low than other cancers. In spite of the advancement in medical treatments of lungs cancer, its fveyear survival rate still fuctuates from 4% to 17%, but if the lung cancer is identifed at its early stages, the survival rate  \ncan be improved [2] . Te key is to identify the exact location of nodules. Te lung malignancy is caused by abnormal growth of cells in lungs tissues. Risk factors that cause the cancer to happen are biological reactions, chemical reactions, and smoking. [3] .  \nTe human lungs are pyramid in shape paired organs (left and right lungs) that are connected through trachea known as a windpipe. Te trachea is further connected to two bronchi (airway in respiratory systems) that holds both the paired organs together and regulates oxygen. Tere are mainly two bronchi: the one ","cbCaijydszmHtFn1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijydszmHtFn1","pdf",1133764,16,"English","# Introduction\n# Lung cancer background and risk factors\n## Anatomy of human lungs and nodules\n## Types of nodules: micronodules, focal opacity, mass\n## Imaging modalities and detection challenges\n# Proposed method: segmentation and feature extraction\n## Optimal features: HOG, LBP, and geometric features\n# Classification results and evaluation","[{\"question\":\"Why is identifying lung focal opacity difficult for radiologists?\",\"answer\":\"Because lung nodules can have visual similarity in shape and intensity to the trachea, vessels, and nearby tissues, making detection challenging.\"},{\"question\":\"What dataset and step are used to locate nodules in the proposed framework?\",\"answer\":\"The framework performs semantic segmentation on images from the LIDC (Lung Image Database Consortium) dataset to identify nodules.\"},{\"question\":\"Which classifier performed best and what were its key metrics?\",\"answer\":\"A support vector machine performed best, achieving 97.8% accuracy with 100% sensitivity, 93% specificity, and a 6.7% false positive rate.\"}]","Identification and Classification of Lungs Focal Opacity Using CNN Segmentation and Optimal Feature Selection | PDF",1790222961]
