Using generalized additive models for construction of nonlinear classifiers in computer-aided diagnosis systems.

Using generalized additive models for construction of nonlinear classifiers in computer-aided diagnosis systems.

Several investigators have pointed out the possibility of using computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) schemes, as second readers, to help radiologists in the interpretation of images. One of the most important aspects to be considered when the diagnostic imaging systems are analyzed is the evaluation of th...
