Classification of lung disease in HRCT scans using integral geometry measures and functional data analysis [PDF]
A framework for classification of chronic lung disease from high-resolution CT scans is presented. We use a set of features which measure the local morphology and topology of the 3D voxels within the lung parenchyma and apply functional data classification
