Abstract
The proposed LDA approach improved significantly the separation between the two groups based on experimental data. Because this approach was used as a linear classifier rather than as a regression function, it combined the fractal analysis with the knowledge of the high- and low-risk patterns, and thus better characterized the multifractal nature of the parenchymal patterns. We believe that the proposed analyses based on the LDA technique to characterize mammographic parenchymal patterns may potentially yield radiographic markers for assessing breast cancer risk.
