“…The highest values for this method are 1.00, 98.77, 98.76, 98.77 and 25.74 for precision, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and PSNR values, respectively. Based on the previous studies that has been reviewed, the performance of approaches used previously has resulted in precision values of 0.98 [46], 0.96 [47], 0.99 [48], sensitivity 98.83% [46], 95.83% [33], 97.96% [47], specificity 97.9% [45], 98.5% [46], 90.62% [33], 83.65% [47], 99.70 [48], accuracy 98.3% [45], 98.38 [46], 95.08% [33], 96.28% [47], 99.70% [48], 90% [49]. The values obtained from the experiment for method 1, which is thresholding and trace region boundaries in a binary image, outperform other methods in terms of precision, sensitivity and specificity from previous studies.…”
