| Abstract | Lung cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the world. Although early detection of lung tumours (nodules) can remarkably diminish the mortal rate, precise detection of them is not always possible by visual inspection of the computerised tomography images. Since nodules with different sizes have non-uniform shape and brightness, texture attributes and also the gradient of orientation can be good candidate features, which have been used for this purpose. They determined the co-occurrence matrix of the extended local binary pattern (ELBP) along with weighted orientation difference (WOD) for each sub-region of the lung area. Local binary pattern is a texture descriptor that can extract the discriminative features efficiently. The proposed ELBP is rotation invariant and suitable to describe non-uniform patterns. Moreover, WOD as a structural feature uses the magnitude of each edge as the weight of its orientation difference. After constructing the co-occurrence matrix, discriminative features were extracted from this matrix and fed into a support vector machine in order to classify each sub-region as a cancerous (nodule) or normal tissue. The proposed method was compared to some of state-of-the-art nodule detection methods and was assessed over several real datasets in terms of specificity, sensitivity and accuracy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
