    The detection of pulmonary nodules on computed tomography scans provides a clue for the early diagnosis of lung cancer. Manual detection mandates a heavy radiological workload as it identifies nodules slice-by-slice. This paper presents a fully automated nodule detection with three significant contributions. First, an automated seeded region growing is designed to segment the lung regions from the tomography scans. Second, a three-dimensional chain code algorithm is implemented to refine the border of the segmented lungs. Lastly, nodules inside the lungs are detected using an optimized random forest classifier. The experiments for our proposed detection are conducted using 888 scans from a public dataset, and achieves a favorable result of 93.11% accuracy, 94.86% sensitivity, and 91.37% specificity, with only 0.0863 false positives per exam.

    Imbalanced data classification is a serious and challenging task for most of the medical image diagnosis applications. They usually produce a larger number of false samples compared to the actual ones. That is the number of samples for the class of interest (minority) is significantly fewer than other types of class (majority). The classification performed using such data is called imbalanced data classification. As a consequence, the learning model bias towards the majority class and fails the classification of the minority class. Data sampling and ensemble methods are common ways to compensate for this issue. Random forest (RF), an ensemble of multiple decision trees, is very famous in both of the classification and regression problems because of its robust and accurate predictions. However, it also suffers class bias in the imbalanced data classification problems. This paper proposes and compares different sampling methods to solve the imbalanced data classification in RF.
