Automated detection of breast cancer in mammography images using Gabor filter and Bayesian classifier / Bardia Yousefi

The cause of breast cancer is unknown, also there are some prescriptions from doctors regarding less of stress and having good life habit, so early detection can reduce the death rate of patients. The earlier and accurate detection of symptom helps to provide re-liable diagnosis and better treatment...
