Abstract

Sclerosis is a disease that triggers mainly due to damage of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Various impairments are observed with this disease. Analyzing this type of images is needed for the medical research field for early stage identification. So, the present paper uses Bivariate Gaussian Mixture distribution for analyzing the noisy sclerosis images. For this, the present paper uses neural network for classification. The proposed method is evaluated with various images of brain web repository and the results show the efficiency of the proposed method.
