Abstract

Nowadays, support vector machines (SVMs) has been used broadly to solve numerous mind boggling issues in various fields because of its capacity to sum up and classify perfectly. One of these fields is the medicinal image preparing for diagnosing purposes. In this paper, tooth caries identification system is presented in light of SVMs that trained by using practical swarm optimization (PSO). The proposed approach utilizes inter-pixel autocorrelation as input features. Experimental results prove that the proposed approach can detect tooth caries efficiently. Furthermore, it is clear that the classification accuracy is very good. In addition, the proposed approach of tooth caries detection outperforms the diagnosing process performed by a rule-based computer assisted program and a group of dentists.
