摘要
We have developed a multi-classifier system for automatic classification of pulmonary nodules in lung CT (Computed Tomography) images. The system consists of a set of independent modules, each emulating a radiologist of a team, and a further module aimed at appropriately combining the radiologists' opinions. In the experiments we obtained a sensitivity of 95% against a specificity of 91.33% adopting a combiner based on the decision templates technique.
