Ensemble classification with modified SIFT descriptor for medical image modality

The increasing number of medical images of various imaging modalities is challenging the accuracy and efficiency of radiologists. In order to retrieve the images from medical databases, radiologists will confine their search to the image modality. In this paper, we present an improved image feature...
