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. 

In this paper an attempt is made to retrieve the relevant paintings based on the approach of the artist using Generalized Bivariate Laplacian Mixture Model (GBLMM). This article helps in understanding the outline of assorted artists and help as a means to categorize a scrupulous painting based on the style or the text ingrained within the images. To profile the artist style GBLMM is used. The projected model helps to discriminate the strokes of the artists and lend a hand in the classification of paintings. The proposed model is implemented using high resolution Chinese painting images.

Texture deals with the visual properties of an image. Texture analysis plays a dominant role for image segmentation. In texture segmentation, model based methods are superior to model free methods with respect to segmentation methods. This paper addresses the application of multivariate generalized Gaussian mixture probability model for segmenting the texture of an image integrating with hierarchical clustering. Here the feature vector associated with the texture is derived through DCT coefficients of the image blocks. The model parameters are estimated using EM algorithm. The initialization of model parameters is done through hierarchical clustering algorithm and moment method of estimation. The texture segmentation algorithm is developed using component maximum likelihood under Bayesian frame. The performance of the proposed algorithm is carried through experimentation on five image textures selected randomly from the Brodatz texture database. The texture segmentation performance measures such as GCE, PRI and VOI have revealed that this method outperform over the existing methods of texture segmentation using Gaussian mixture model. This is also supported by computing confusion matrix, accuracy, specificity, sensitivity and F-measure.

Efficient diagnosis plays a crucial role for treatment. In many cases of criticalness, radiologists, doctors prefer to the usage of internet technologies in order to search for similar cases. Accordingly in this paper an effective mechanism of Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) is presented, which helps the radiologists/doctors in retrieving similar images from the medical dataset. The paper is presented by considering brain medical images from a medical dataset. Feature vectors are to be extracted efficiently so as to retrieve the images of interest. In this paper a two-way approach is adopted to retrieve the images of relevance from the dataset. In the first step the Probability Density Functions (PDF) are extracted and in the second step the relevant images are extracted using correlation coefficient. The accuracy of the model is tested on a database consisting of 1000 MR images related to brain. The effectiveness of the model is tested using Precision, Recall, Error rate and Retrieval efficiency. The performance of the proposed model is compared to Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) using quality metrics such as Maximum distance, Mean Squared Error, Signal to Noise Ratio and Jaccard quotient.
