5 Results<br />

(a) All classes<br />

(b) Non-neoplastic<br />

(c) Neoplastic<br />

Figure 5.5: Results for the BBCB method (2 classes, k-NN, pit pattern images)<br />

two separate classes shown <strong>in</strong> 5.5(b) and 5.5(c). While the classification results for the nonneoplastic<br />

images seem to get better when us<strong>in</strong>g lower values for k, the neoplastic images<br />

seems to get better classified the higher we set value k.<br />

Regard<strong>in</strong>g the two classes case the overall classification results are pretty constant, not<br />

matter what value we choose for s, as we can see from figure 5.6. The classification results<br />

for the non-neoplastic images are a bit jagged but the results are always between 60% and<br />

80%. Despite some small spikes, the curve for the neoplastic images is more smooth than<br />

the curve for the non-neoplastic images.<br />

In figure 5.7 we see the classification results for six classes case us<strong>in</strong>g the Outex images<br />

<strong>in</strong> conjunction with the k-NN classifier. As we can see the overall classification results are<br />

clearly better than the overall classification results for the pit pattern images. This applies<br />

to the results obta<strong>in</strong>ed for the the s<strong>in</strong>gle classes too. For the overall classification result as<br />

well as for the classes 3 and 4 it seems like smaller values for k and values for s between<br />

10 and 35 lead to an excellent classification performance, while for the classes 2 and 6 we<br />

also obta<strong>in</strong> good classification results for a higher value of k. For classes 1 and 5 it seems<br />

like the value of k has no great effect on the classification results as long as the value of s is<br />

chosen between 5 and 35.<br />
