abstract = "In order to fully achieve automated mammogram analysis one has to
tackle two problems: classification of radial, circumscribed,
microcalcifications, and normal samples; and classification of
benign, malign, and normal ones. How to extract and select the
best features from the images for classification is a very
difficult task, since all of those classes are basically irregular
textures with a wide visual variety inside each class. In this
paper we propose a multiresolution pattern recognition approach
for this problem, by transforming the data of the images in a
wavelet basis, and then using special sets of the coefficients as
the features tailored towards separating each of those classes.
For the experiments we have used samples of images labeled by
physicians. Results shown are very promising, and the paper
describes possible lines for future directions.",
