This papers reports on methodologies and outcome of a study aiming at developing robust tool to evaluate and classify histology images of cervical cancer. Using the histology images acquired from the pathology laboratories in an Indonesian hospital, this study aims to classify cervical biopsy images based on four well known discriminatory features a) the ratio of nuclei to cytoplasm b) diameter of nuclei c) shape factor and d) roundness of nuclei. In this study, the cervical histology images are classified into three categories: 1) normal, 2) pre cancer and 3) malignant. The final system will take as input a biopsy image of the image of the cervix containing the epithelium layer and provide the classification using the new automated approach, to assist the pathologist in cervical cancer diagnosis.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
